The NCAR GKS-compatible Graphics System

This document offers a brief overview of the NCAR GKS-compatible Graphics Package. It describes the package contents (code and documentation) and how to use it. GKS formalizes certain graphics functionality and specifies how this functionality is to be implemented in languages such as FORTRAN 77. This manual was replaced by NCAR Graphics User's Guide: Version 2.00 (NCAR/TN-283+IA) and the NCAR Graphics Installer's Guide (NCAR/TN-284+IA).
