NAME

       DPSETC - Gives a new character value to a specified internal parameter.

SYNOPSIS

       CALL DPSETC (PNAM,CVAL)

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

       void c_dpsetc (char *pnam, char *cval)

DESCRIPTION

       PNAM        (an  input  constant or variable of type CHARACTER) specifies the name of the parameter to be
                   set. The name must appear as the first three characters of the string.  Other characters  may
                   be  used  to document the use of the parameter being set; for example, instead of just ´CRB´,
                   one can use ´CRB - CHARACTER REPRESENTING BREAK´.

       CVAL        (an input constant or variable of type CHARACTER) is the value to be assigned to the internal
                   parameter specified by PNAM.

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

       The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions.
