GINO Graphics Suite - GINO v9.0  

METAFILES

This section includes device-independent metafiles used for storing picture data in an independent format or for transferring picture data from GINO to another package (see Importing & Exporting). See also the 'Postscript Series Printers' section for details of Encapsulated Postscript (EPS) and the HPGL driver in the 'Printers/Plotters' section for two other formats used for exporting graphics.

Output Filename and Unit Numbers for Metafiles(Fortran only)

By default, a filename of the form <name>.out will be created if gSetDeviceFilename() has not been called.

The second parameter in the routine gSetDeviceFilename() is ignored in all metafile drivers except for IMAGE.
