.TH proc_endproc PL "18-JUN-2001   PL www.sgpr.net"
 
.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
\fBproc endproc\fR is sometimes necessary
to mark the end of a proc's statements,
in certain situations described below.
It does not need to be used routinely.
.LP
It is a do-nothing marker that may occasionally be needed because of 
the way that ploticus scripts
are parsed.  Variables that are set within a proc do not become available
to the script until the proc is finished.  Procs are delineated
by \fB#proc\fR statements.
.LP
Thus if a \fB#set\fR or \fB#if\fR statement is to be used immediately
following a proc that set one of the involved operands, #proc endproc
should be used before the \fB#set\fR or \fB#if\fR.
.LP
