NAME

6       GKS  - GKS (the Graphical Kernel System) is a set of low-level graphics
7       functions that are standardized  by  the  American  National  Standards
8       Institute  (ANSI) and the International Standards Institute (ISO).  The
9       collection of man pages in 3NCARG reflects those  GKS  functions  docu‐
10       mented  in  the  NCAR  UserDoc "User's Guide for NCAR GKS-0A Graphics".
11       This collection does not contain all of the functions  in  GKS-0A,  but
12       merely  the most frequently used ones.  NCAR GKS-0A does contain all of
13       the functions required to be implemented by the GKS Standard.
