and/or PostScript file in my C or Fortran program?
You can change the name of either one by setting the Ngmisc parameter “ME”. See the section “Overriding Default File Names” in the GKS document for information on how to do it for a PostScript file. The same call applies for changing the metafile name. To generate two examples that change the metafile name and the PostScript file name, type: ncargex pgkex26 pgkex27 You can also use the NCARG_GKS_OUTPUT environment variable. For example, you would type the following before running your program: setenv NCARG_GKS_OUTPUT plot.ncgm • Whenever I try to run an NCAR Graphics application, I get the following message: NCARG_ROOT environment variable not set. What should I do? The NCARG_ROOT environment variable must always be set when you access NCAR Graphics software in any way. If the directories containing the NCAR Graphics libraries and binaries reside under one root directory, then set the environment variable NCARG_ROOT to this directory. Otherwise, find out from your system administrator
