HELP SECTION

TVFLUX
Type: Procedure
Use:  TVFLUX is a simple procedure that loops reading TV cursor
      positions with IMXY and returning the image value and coordinates
      at that location to the terminal and message file with IMVAL.  Hit
      button A, B, or C to select a location.  Hit button D to exit.
      The returned values apply to the last position selected.
Adverbs: Output only
  USERID......User ID of owner of image.
  INNAME......Image name(name).
  INCLASS.....Image name(class).
  INSEQ.......Image name(seq. #).
  INDISK......Disk drive # of image.
  PIXXY.......Pixel location (X,Y,...) in the image.  The last
              one selected is returned.
  PIXVAL......Intensity at this pixel.
  COORDINA....The X and Y coordinates are found as:
              Xpos = abs(CO(1)) + abs(CO(2))/60 + abs(CO(3))/3600
                 if any of CO(1), CO(2), CO(3) < 0: Xpos = -Xpos
              Ypos = abs(CO(4)) + abs(CO(5))/60 + abs(CO(6))/3600
                 if any of CO(4), CO(5), CO(6) < 0: Ypos = -Ypos
              Note that, although these are most suited to RA, Dec in
              sexagesimal notation, they can be used for any type of
              coordinate.  The units are standard FITS units (e.g
              degrees, m/sec, Hz, sec, etc.) except that right
              ascensions are in hours of time.
  ERROR.......If the verb is not aborted for error, but the
              interpolation fails, ERROR will be TRUE (1), else
              it will be FALSE (-1).  Procedure exits if ERROR
              is TRUE.
  TVBUT.......Value of last button(s) pushed.
