gversi(3G)

NAME
     gversi - returns graphics hardware and library version information

FORTRAN SPECIFICATION
     integer*4 function gversi(v)
     character*(*) v

PARAMETERS
     v        expects a variable into which to copy a string.  Reserve at
              least a 12 character buffer.

FUNCTION RETURN VALUE
     There is no longer any use for the returned value of this function; it
     will always be zero.

DESCRIPTION
     gversi fills the buffer, v, with a null-terminated string that specifies
     the graphics hardware type of the currently selected screen and the
     version number of Graphics Library.

     m and n are the major and minor release numbers of the release to which
     the Graphics Library belongs.

     gversi can be called prior to the first winope.

NOTES
     This subroutine is available only in immediate mode.

     Early serial numbers of the Personal Iris do not support the complete
     Personal Iris graphics functionality.

     The VGXT string is truncated to fit into 12 characters, the minor release
     number is not returned.
