GMTSET(1)		     Generic Mapping Tools		     GMTSET(1)

NAME
       gmtset - To change individual GMT default parameters

SYNOPSIS
       gmtset  [  -Gdefaultsfile ] PARAMETER1 [=] value1 PARAMETER2 [=] value2
       PARAMETER3 [=] value3 ...

DESCRIPTION
       gmtset will adjust individual GMT  defaults  settings  in  the  current
       directory's  .gmtdefaults4  file.   If  no such file exists one will be
       created.	 The main purpose of gmtset is temporarily to  change  certain
       parameters  inside  a shell script, e.g., set the dots-per-inch to 600,
       run the script, and reset to 300 dpi.  Optionally, you can specify  one
       or  more	 temporary  changes  directly on any GMT command line with the
       syntax --PARAMETER=value; such changes are only in effect for that com‐
       mand and do not permanently change the default settings on disk.

       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.

OPTIONS
       -G     Name  of	specific  .gmtdefaults4	 file to modify [Default looks
	      first in current directory, then in your home directory, then in
	      ~/.gmt and finally in the system defaults].

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

       gmtset	  DOTS_PR_INCH	    600	     ANNOT_FONT_PRIMARY	     Helvetica
       GRID_CROSS_SIZE_PRIMARY 0.1i ANNOT_OFFSET_PRIMARY 0.2c
