DOPRINT
Type: Adverb (Logical, > 0 => true)
Use: True (>0) means print to the terminal (user CRT).
False (<0) means print to regular output device (usually
the printer).
Zero (=0) means to do no printing.
In most tasks which use this parameter, setting DOPRINT 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. When printing to a file, DOPRINT=-2 suppresses
page-feed characters in page headers and DOPRINT=-3 suppresses
most header information including all page headers.
Null value: 0 => no print
This adverb is very similar to DOCRT except that it is used for
tasks in which the printed output is not the main purpose of the
task and for which it is usually not wanted.
