DOCUMENT GIST_FORMAT
NOTE: gist is deprecated; postscript output is now the default
is used by the hcp_out function to generate the system call which
invokes the gist CGM browser and pipes its output to lpr. This
format should contain a single %s specification; after this %s is
replaced by the name of the CGM file, Yorick invokes the system
command on the resulting string.
LPR_FORMAT is also used by hcp_out to process PostScript files
made directly by Yorick.
The default values are:
GIST_FORMAT= "gist %s -f | lpr";
LPR_FORMAT= "lpr %s";

SEE: Y_SITE
DOCUMENT Y_LAUNCH the directory containing the Yorick executable
Y_SITE Yorick's "site directory" (platform independent)
Y_HOME Yorick's "home directory" (platform dependent)
Y_LAUNCH is set by compiled code when Yorick starts and should never
be modified.
Y_SITE is set to a default built-in value by compiled code at startup,
but may be modified in the file Y_LAUNCH/paths.i to allow for
ports of Yorick binary executables.
contains subdirectories i0/, i/, i-start/, and others
Y_HOME is set to a default built-in value by compiled code at startup,
but may be modified in the file Y_LAUNCH/paths.i to allow for
ports of Yorick binary executables.
contains file Make.cfg, subdirectories i-start/, lib/, and others
if the compiled-in value of Y_SITE is incorrect (i0/std.i missing),
then both Y_SITE and Y_HOME are reset to Y_LAUNCH/.., which allows
relocatable yorick distributions
