+        Inquire if a GMT common option has been set and return its current
+        value if possible.
+
+        Parameters
+        ----------
+        option : str
+            The GMT common option to check. Valid options are ``"B"``, ``"I"``,
+            ``"J"``, ``"R"``, ``"U"``, ``"V"``, ``"X"``, ``"Y"``, ``"a"``,
+            ``"b"``, ``"f"``, ``"g"``, ``"h"``, ``"i"``, ``"n"``, ``"o"``,
+            ``"p"``, ``"r"``, ``"s"``, ``"t"``, and ``":"``.
+
+        Returns
+        -------
+        value : bool, int, float, or numpy.ndarray
+            Whether the option was set or its value.
+
+            If the option was not set, return ``False``. Otherwise,
+            the return value depends on the choice of the option.

+            - ``"I"``: 2-element array for the increments (float)
+            - ``"R"``: 4-element array for the region (float)
+            - ``"V"``: the verbose level (int)
+            - ``"X"``: the xshift (float)
+            - ``"Y"``: the yshift (float)
+            - ``"a"``: geometry of the dataset (int)
+            - ``"b"``: return 0 if `-bi` was set and 1 if `-bo` was set (int)
+            - ``"f"``: return 0 if `-fi` was set and 1 if `-fo` was set (int)
+            - ``"h"``: whether to delete existing header records (int)
+            - ``"i"``: number of input columns (int)
+            - ``"o"``: number of output columns (int)
+            - ``"r"``: registration type (int)
+            - ``"t"``: 2-element array for the transparency (float)
+            - ``":"``: return 0 if `-:i` was set and 1 if `-:o` was set (int)
