6 gset_char_space (Set character spacing) - sets the character spacing
7 for text.

12 void gset_char_space(Gdouble char_space);
13
15 char_space (Input) - Specifies how much additional white space should
16 be inserted between characters drawn using the gtext output
17 primitive. char_space is specified as a fraction of the
18 character height.
19
20 A character spacing of zero positions the character body of
21 each successive character contiguously with enough white
22 space between them to produce pleasing normal spacing. A
23 positive value inserts extra space between successive char‐
24 acters. A negative value causes successive characters to
25 overlap. By default char_space = 0.0.

28 To use the GKS C-binding routines, load the ncarg_gks and ncarg_c
29 libraries.
