18.9. Other Routines of G.K.S.   

There are many more routines in the GKS system (see table below) to enable the user to define windows, viewports, configurations for workstations, the representation for lines, text, markers and areas, etc.


The parameters of each subroutine are listed with an indication of whether they are input (In) or output (Out), their and their meaning. Some parameters specify a number of options, which in PASCAL would be of enumeration type. In the FORTRANN 77 binding, these are expressed as integers.
