DOCIRCLE
Type: Adverb   (logical,  > 0  =>  true)
Use:  If True, do some operation in a "circular" manner, if
      false do it in a linear manner.
Null Value:  False  (-1)
Verbs:
   REMOVIE.......Rerun a previously loaded movie (as TVMOVIE).
   TVCUBE........Verb to load a cube into tv channel(s) & run a movie.
                 DOCIRCLE used as in TVMOVIE.
   TVHUEINT......Make a hue/intensity display from 2 TV channels.
                 DOCIRCLE differentiates between a circular set of
                 colors (blue -> red -> blue) and a linear color
                 spectrum (blue -> red only).
   TVLABEL.......Label a TV image.  DOCIRCLE controls whether the ticks
                 are drawn as short lines (false) or as a full
                 coordinate grid (true).
   TVMOVIE.......Load a cube into TV channel(s) and run a movie.
                 DOCIRCLE true causes the movie to be an infinite loop
                 and false causes the movie to reverse direction at
                 each end.
Procedures:
   CIRCLEVS......Sets RGBLEVS to fill LEVS with a circular color scheme.
                 DOCIRCLE true does a full circle of colors, false does
                 only blue to red.

                 MF plotted.  DOCIRCLE used as in TVLABEL.
   CNTR..........Plot a contour representation of an image; as TVLABEL.
   CONPL.........Plots AIPS gridding convolution functions; as TVLABEL.
   DFTPL.........Plots DFT of a UV data set at arbitrary point versus
                 time; as TVLABEL.

                 scale); DOCIRCLE used as in TVLABEL.
   PLAYR.........Task to load one or two images and play with them on
                 the TV; as in TVLABEL.

                 DOCIRCLE used as in TVLABEL.
   TVHUI.........Make TV image from images of intensity, hue,
                 saturation.  DOCIRCLE true plots with a full circle of
                 hues, false uses only blue to red.
