      adverb values to see if they are in range.

  DOWAIT...Logical adverb.  True (> 0) specifies that AIPS
           not resume until the requested task has finished.

Grammar:          GO      or      GO taskname
            The first starts the task referred to by the
            adverb TASK.  The second starts the task 'taskname'.

            GO PRTPL                   Starts the task PRTPL.
            Note that the adverb TASK is not set to 'PRTPL' in
            the second example.
