   SUBMIT........Verb which submits a batch work file to the job queue.
                 Delays the start of the job by DETIME hours.
Tasks:
   ANBPL.........Plots and prints uv data converted to antenna based
                 values.  DETIME is the minimum time gap to be treated
                 as a gap on irregular time axes.
   BPPLT.........Plots selected contents of bandpass (BP) files versus
                 time.  DETIME is the minimum time gap to be treated
                 as a gap on irregular time axes.
   DEFLG.........Edits data based on decorrelation over channels and
                 time.  DETIME is the minimum time interval with no data
                 causing the task to start a new average.
   EDITA.........Interactive TV task to edit uv data based on
                 TY/SY/SN/CL tables.  DETIME is the interval in minutes
                 constituting a break in the data.
   EDITR.........Interactive baseline-oriented visibility editor using
                 the TV.  DETIME is the interval in minutes constituting
                 a break in the data.
   GSTAR.........Task to read a Guide Star (UK) table and create an ST
                 table.  DETIME is a code for the output star epoch.
   PCABL.........Copies the Cable cal values from PC table 1 to PC table
                 n.  Times within DETIME seconds are treated as the
                 same.
   PCDIV.........Scales pulse-cal amplitudes by Tsys or Psum.  Times
                 within DETIME seconds are treated as the same.
   SNBLP.........Plots selected contents of SN or CL files on a baseline
                 basis.  DETIME is the minimum time gap to be treated
                 as a gap on irregular time axes.
   SNPLT.........Plots selected contents of SN, SY, TY, PC or CL files
                 versus time.  DETIME is the minimum time interval in
                 minutes to be called a "gap".
   SNEDT.........Interactive SN/CL/TY/SY table editor using the TV.
                 DETIME in minutes is the interval regarded as a break.
   TEPLT.........Plots selected contents of TE (TECOR, ALBUS) parameter
                 tables.  DETIME is the minimum time interval in minutes
                 to be called a "gap".
   WETHR.........Plots selected contents of WX tables, flags data based
                 on WX.  DETIME is the minimum time interval in minutes
                 to be called a "gap".
