; NAME:
;   cgPSWindow
;
; PURPOSE:
;   This function is used to calculate the size of a PostScript window that has the same 
;   aspect ratio (ratio of height to width) as the current display graphics window. It 
;   creates the largest possible PostScript output window with the desired aspect ratio. 
;   This assures that PostScript output looks similar, if not identical, to normal 
;   graphics output on the display.

; :History:
;    Change History::
;       Written by: David W. Fanning, November 1996.
;       Fixed a bug in which the YOFFSET was calculated incorrectly
;          in Landscape mode. 12 Feb 97.
;       Took out a line of code that wasn't being used. 14 Mar 97.
;       Added correct units keyword to return structure. 29 JUN 98. DWF
;       Fixed a bug in how landscape offsets were calculated. 19 JUL 99. DWF.
;       Fixed a bug in the way margins were used to conform to my
;          original conception of the program. 19 JUL 99. DWF.
;       Added Landscape and Portrait fields to the return structure. 19 JUL 99. DWF.
;       Added PageSize keyword, changed MARGIN keyword, and completely
;          rewrote most of the intenal code. 9 FEB 2000. DWF.
;       Fixed a bug in how I calculated the aspect ratio. 1 MAR 2000. DWF.
;       Added PRINTER keyword to return proper offset values for the
;          PRINTER device, where the offset location is not rotated. 1 MAR 2000. DWF.
;       Added PRINTER fudge factors to take into account that printer offsets are
;          calculated from the printable area of the paper, rather than the corner
;          of the paper. 8 AUG 2000. DWF.
;       Changed the default margin to 0.05 from 0.15. 29 Nov 2004, DWF.
;       Added EUROPEAN keyword and set LANDSCAPE mode if window wider than higher
;           as the default if LANDSCAPE is not set. 13 Dec 2010. DWF.
;       Added ASPECTRATIO keyword to allow user-specified window aspect ratio. 13 Dec 2010. DWF.
;       Depreciated EUROPEAN keyword in favor of METRIC. 31 Jan 2011. DWF.
;       Now setting LANDSCAPE=0 if aspect GT 1 and not set otherwise. 19 Feb 2013. DWF.
;       Renamed cgPSWIndow from PSWindow. 10 Feb 2014. DWF.
;       Added SANE_OFFSETS keyword. 10 Feb 2014. DWF.

; This function returns a keyword structure that can be used to configure
; the PostScript device for graphics output.
;
; :Returns:
;    The output value is a named structure defined like this::
;
;       pageInfo = {CGPSWINDOW_STRUCT, XSIZE:0.0, YSIZE:0.0, $
;          XOFSET:0.0, YOFFSET:0.0, INCHES:0, PORTRAIT:0, LANDSCAPE:0}
;
;    The units of the four size fields are inches unless the CM or METRIC keywords
;    are set. The output can be used to immediately configure the PostScript
;    or Printer device, like this::
;
;       Set_Plot, 'PS' ; or 'PRINTER'
;       Device, _Extra=pageInfo
;
; :Keywords:
;    aspectRatio: in, optional, type=float, default=1.0
;       The desired aspect ratio of the output "window" on the output device.
;       The aspect ratio is calculated as the ratio height/width.
;    cm: in, optional, type=boolean, default=0
;        Set this keyword to return sizes and offsets in centimeters instead of inches.
;    european: in, optional, type=boolean, default=0
;        A depreciated keyword. Use `Metric` instead.
;    fudge: in, optional, type=float
;       A quick way to set symetrical XFUDGE and YFUDGE factors.
;       If this keyword is set to a value, XFUDGE and YFUDGE keywords are
;       set to the same value. Fudge factors are used only with some
;       printers and generally only when output is being sent to the
;       PRINTER device. See the description of the `XFudge` and `YFudge`
;       keywords for additional information.
;    landscape: in, optional, type=boolean, default=0
;        Set this keyword to return sizes and offsets in landscape mode.
;    margin: in, optional, type=float, default=0.15
;       An optional margin to calculate around the edge of the output window.
;       A number between 0.0 and 0.35.
;    metric: in, optional, type=boolean, default=0
;        Set this keyword to change the `Pagesize` to A4 and set the `CM` keyword for
;        metric or European measurements.
;    pagesize: in, optional, type=string, default='LETTER'
;       Set this keyword to a string indicating the type of PostScript page size you want. 
;       Allowed values are "LETTER", "LEGAL", and "A4". 
;    printer: in, optional, type=boolean, default=0
;       Set this keyword to produce keyword values appropriate for the PRINTER device.
;    sane_offsets: in, optional, type=boolean, default=0.0
;        Configuring the PostScript device when in Landscape mode is pretty much insane.
;        The problem is the PostScript page rotates and the X and Y offsets change
;        directions, although the X and Y sizes do not. Nevertheless, this is how it
;        is done, so normally these insane, mixed up values are returned so they can be
;        passed directly to the PostScript device. Coyote Graphics routines, however, 
;        reply on cgPS_Config to configure the PostScript device, and this routine uses
;        sane offset values, which are *always* calculated from the lower-left corner of 
;        the display window, no matter how the page is rotated. If you are passing these
;        values into cgPS_Config, you want to set this keyword.
;    xfudge: in, optional, type=float
;       Printers calculate the offset point from the printable
;       edge of the paper (sometimes), rather from the corner of the paper.
;       For example, on my Lexmark printer, both X and Y offsets are
;       calculated from a point 0.25 inches in from the edge. This keyword
;       allows you to set a "fudge" factor that will be subtracted from
;       the XOFFSET that is returned to the user. This allows you to create
;       output that is centered on the page. The fudge factor should be in
;       the same units as the returned size and offset values.
;    yfudge: in, optional, type=float
;       Printers calculate the offset point from the printable
;       edge of the paper (sometimes), rather from the corner of the paper.
;       For example, on my Lexmark printer, both X and Y offsets are
;       calculated from a point 0.25 inches in from the edge. This keyword
;       allows you to set a "fudge" factor that will be subtracted from
;       the YOFFSET that is returned to the user. This allows you to create
;       output that is centered on the page. The fudge factor should be in
;       the same units as the returned size and offset values.
