NAME

curveprecision − sets the number of line segments that make up a curve segment

SPECIFICATION

C
curveprecision(nsegments)
short nsegments;

FORTRAN
subroutine curvep(nsegments)
integer*4 nsegments

Pascal
procedure curveprecision(nsegments: longint);

DESCRIPTION

curveprecision sets the number of line segments used to draw a curve.  Whenever crv or crvn executes, a number of straight line segments (nsegments) approximates each curve segment.  The greater the value of nsegments, the smoother the curve.
