- There is no file format called GKS. GKS (Graphics Kernel System) is
- closely related to the CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile) standard however.
- This is probably what you are looking for. If so they are available from
- ANSI. The relevant documents are:
-
- ISO8632-1 Part 1: Functional Specification
- ISO8632-2 Part 2: Character Encoding
- ISO8632-3 Part 3: Binary Encoding
- ISO8632-4 Part 4: Clear Text Encoding.
-
- And can be ordered from:
-
- Canadian Standards Association
- Sales Group
- 178 Rexdale Blvd.
- Rexdale, Ontario, M9W 1R3
- (416) 747-4044
-
- You colonials can get it from
-
- ANSI, American National Standards Institute
- Sales Department
- 1430 Broadway
- New York, NY, 10018
- (212) 642-4900
-
- If you want information on the GKS standard (It is a specification of
- the input and output primitives for displaying 2D graphical data.) you
- can get it from the same place. The relevant documents are:
-
- ISO 7942 Functional Specification
- ISO 8651-1 Fortran Binding
- ISO 8651-2 Pascal Binding
- ISO 8651-3 Ada Binding
- ISO 8651-4 Don't know. Might be C but does someone know?
- ISO 8805 GKS-3D
- ISO 8806 GKS-3D Bindings
