Numerous tasks support these values including PLOTR, STARS, and
those tasks that plot the contents of STars files (CNTR, GREYS,
KNTR, PCNTR, etc.)
Task:
ALVAR.......Plots the Allan Variance statistic of a UV data set.
ANBPL.......Plots and prints uv data converted to antenna based
values.

BPPLT.......Plots selected contents of bandpass (BP) files versus time.
CAPLT.......Plots closure amplitude and model from CC file.
CLOSE.......Plots closure phase or amplitude spectra averaged over
closures.
