          loaded).

              Optional immediate argument gives width of wedge
                 in pixels (default 16).  If argument < 0,
                 program uses TV cursor to determine where to
                 put wedge (default below bottom or above top
                 of image).  Point to left or right of image
                 to get a vertical wedge.

HUEWEDGE
Type:  Verb
Use:   Loads a linear step wedge into the TV memory associated with
       the hue image using the PIXRANGE and FUNCTYPE of that image's
       TVLOAD.  A wedge, constant in X and changing in Y, is also
       loaded to the TV memory associated with the intensity image.
       The intensities of that wedge use the FUNCTYPE of the intensity
       image TVLOAD and a PIXRANGE limited by the PIXRANGE of the
       intensity image TVLOAD.  This allows you to select a narrower
       range of intensities for the vertical direction including no
       range at all.

       There is an optional immediate argument:
               HUEWEDGE (n)
       If n is missing, use n=16, where n is the width of the
       wedge in pixels.  If n<0 use abs(n) as the width of the
       wedge and ask the user to indicate where to draw the
       wedge.  The default locations of the wedge are:
       (a) just below the image (if it will fit) (b) above the
       image (if it will fit), and (d) overlaying the bottom
       rows of the image.

       To get a vertical wedge, use n < 0 and select a point to the
       right or left of the image.  The X position you select is taken
       as the left edge of the vertical wedge.  For horizontal wedges
       use n > 0 or, with n < 0, point below or above or inside the
       image.  The point you select is the bottom of the horizontal
       wedge.

       Note that, if HUEWEDGE is used in a FOR or WHILE loop or in an
       IF-THEN-ELSE construct, then the immediate argument is
       required.  Otherwise, some item necessary to the loop/construct
       will be taken as the immediate argument.

Adverbs:
  TVCHAN.....TV channel for intensity image.
  TV2CHAN....TV channel for hue image.  If either is out of range, 1
             and 2 are used.
  PIXRANGE...Limit the intensity wedge direction to PIXRANGE.
             0,0 => as TVLOAD.  Will be set to the TVLOAD if
             outside the TVLOD range.
  DOINVERS...>  0 => intensity wedge on long axis, hue on short
                     i.e. horizontal wedge has intensity on X, hue on
                     Y, vertical wedge has intensity on Y hue on X
             <= 0 => hue wedge on long axis, intensity on short
  LABEL......0 => no labeling
             1 => label intensity wedge axis
             2 => label hue wedge axis
             4 => label image
             3 => label both wedge axes
             5 => label image and intensity wedge axis
             6 => label image and hue wedge axis
             7 => label everything
  GRCHAN.....Graphics channel for labeling: 0 => 2
