HELP SECTION

DOCRT
Type: Adverb  (Logical,  > 0  =>  true)
Use:  True (1) means print to the terminal (user CRT).
      False (-1) means print to regular output device (usually
      the printer).
      In most tasks which use this parameter, setting DOCRT to true
      makes the task "interactive."  This means that the task will not
      resume AIPS until it has finished its print portions.  It also
      means that it will ask the user if he wishes to continue every
      time the CRT screen has been filled.  To terminate the printing
      (and perhaps the task), enter "Q" or "q" in response to this
      question.  Of course, there are exceptions: IMFIT and JMFIT use
      solely the message file if DOCRT is true.
      DOCRT = -1 means to use the line printer or a text file if
      OUTPRINT is not blank.  In the latter case, DOCRT=-2 suppresses
      page-feed characters in page headers and DOCRT=-3 suppresses
      most header information including all page headers.
Null value:  task dependent - 0 may mean no print or may mean to use
      the line printer
