NAME

   MAPPOS - Positions the map on the plotter frame.

SYNOPSIS

   CALL MAPPOS (XLOW,XROW,YBOW,YTOW)

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

   #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

   void c_mappos (float xlow, float xrow, float ybow,
   float ytow)

DESCRIPTION

   XLOW        (an input expression, of type REAL) specifies the position
               of the left edge of the window. The default is .05.

   XROW        (an input expression, of type REAL) specifies the position
               of the right edge of the window. The default is .95.

   YBOW        (an input expression, of type REAL) specifies the position
               of the bottom edge of the window. The default is .05.

   YTOW        (an input expression, of type REAL) specifies the position
               of the top edge of the window. The default is .95.

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

   The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN
   argument descriptions.

USAGE

   This routine allows you to set the current values of the four EZMAP
   parameters 'XL', 'XR', 'YB', and 'YT'.  For a complete list of
   parameters available in this utility, see the ezmap_params man page.

EXAMPLES

   Use the ncargex command to see the following relevant examples: caredg,
   ccpcica, ccpmovi, ccppole, ccpvp, cmppos, cmptit, cpex03, cpex08,
   mpex04, mpex05, mpex06, mpex07, epltch, fgkgpl, fpchiqu.

ACCESS

   To use MAPPOS or c_mappos, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg,
   ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably in that order.

MESSAGES

   See the ezmap man page for a description of all EZMAP error messages
   and/or informational messages.
