Hi all,

I try to call GKS from a Fortran program. All worked fine with de "HP 
GKS". However when upgrading to "VSI GKS" I got problems initializing 
GKS. It looks like the call to GOPWK should be adapted:

What always worked was:
    CALL GOPWK(1, 0 , GWSDEF )
It looks like the second parameter is not integer anymore in VSI-GKS but 
a character string (I get the error "Invalid representation of integer 
in translated string")

I have no idea what to fill  in for the second parameter to get the 
default connection ID. The examples the installation stored on disk only 
show an integer parameter here.Who can get me a hint on how to call 
GOPWK in a proper way.


I tried this on OpenVMS8.4-2L1 with VSI-GKS 7.3 (and HP-GKS V7.2 for 
reference) and VSI Fortran V8.3-104957-50Q83 running on IA64.
