DESCRIPTION
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 combi-
nations that you want to modify. For a complete list-
ing 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
