The GINIT function performs three functions:
it readies the library that contains SAS/GRAPH graphics
routines, it opens a workstation, and it activates it. A workstation is a
Graphics Kernel Standard (GKS) concept. GKS allows for multiple workstations
to be open at the same time; however, for DSGI applications, you always use
exactly one workstation. This function moves the operating state from GKCL
to WSAC.
