gmtset1

Usage

Overview

gmtset will adjust individual GMT defaults settings in the current directory's .gmtdefaults' file. If no such file exists one will be created. The main purpose of gmtset is to temporarily change certain parameters inside a shellscript, e.g., set the dots-per-inch to 600, run the script, and reset to 300 dpi.

PARAMETER value

Provide one or several pairs of parameter/value combinations that you want to modify. For a complete listing of available parameters and their meaning, see the gmtdefaults man page.

Examples

To change the dpi to 600, set anotation font to Helvetica, and select grid-crosses of size 0.1 inch, and set anotation offset to 0.2 cm, try

gmtset DOTS_PR_INCH 600 ANOT_FONT Helvetica GRID_CROSS_SIZE 0.1i ANOT_OFFSET 0.2c
