DOPRINT
Type: Adverb  (Logical,  > 0  =>  true)
Use:  True (>0) means print to the terminal (user CRT).
      False (<0) means print to regular output device (usually
      the printer).
      Zero (=0) means to do no printing.
      In most tasks which use this parameter, setting DOPRINT to true
      makes the task "interactive."  This means that the task will not
      resume AIPS until it has finished its print portions.  It also
      means that it will ask the user if he wishes to continue every
      time the CRT screen has been filled.  To terminate the printing
      (and perhaps the task), enter "Q" or "q" in response to this
      question.  When printing to a file, DOPRINT=-2 suppresses
      page-feed characters in page headers and DOPRINT=-3 suppresses
      most header information including all page headers.
Null value:  0 => no print

      This adverb is very similar to DOCRT except that it is used for
      tasks in which the printed output is not the main purpose of the
      task and for which it is usually not wanted.

Verbs:
  INP........Displays adverb values for task, verb, or proc - quick
             form.  DOPRINT <= -9 kills page-full stops.
  INPUTS.....Displays adverb values for task, verb, or proc - to msg
             file.  DOPRINT <= -9 kills page-full stops.
  TVHELIX....Verb to activate a helical hue-intensity TV pseudo-
             coloring.
Tasks:
  CLOSE......Plots closure phase or amplitude spectra averaged over
             closures.
  CLPLT......Plots closure phase and model from CC file.  DOPRINT
             controls printing to output text file.
  IMEAN......Displays the mean & extrema and plots histogram of an
             image.    DOPRINT controls printing to output text file.

  JMFIT......Fits Gaussians to portions of an image
  RLDIF......Determines Right minus Left phase difference, corrects
             cal files.  DOPRINT controls printing of continuum only
             matrix (RL .LR) displays.
  RSPEC......Plots and prints spectrum of rms of a cube
  VHDIF......Find/apply V minus H linear polarization phase
             difference.  DOPRINT controls printing of continuum
             only matrix (VH \ HV) displays.
  XYDIF......Find/apply X minus Y linear polarization phase difference
              DOPRINT controls printing of continuum only matrix
             (XY \ YX) displays.
Procedures:
