HELP SECTION

THEN
Type:  Psuedoverb  -  procedures only
Use:   Used in the IF construction (see IF) to seperate the
       logical condition from the statements to be executed
       if that condition is true.
Grammar:  IF condition THEN statement1;...
          ELSE statementn;...; END
          Or:
          IF condition THEN statement1;...;END
       where condition is a relational condition using =, <=,
       >=, <>, &, ! or a logical variable.  Statements are AIPS
       statements.  The statements may be separated by semi-
       colons as shown above or they may be on separate lines.
       IF-THEN-ELSE may be used in procedures only.
Examples:  IF A = B THEN PRINT 'A = B'; A=7;
           ELSE PRINT 'A <> B'; A=8; END
           IF A <= B THEN PRINT 'A <= B'; C=9; END
