I think you might have to code the latter up. I once
had a railroad engine running across a plot. If you
screw up your nose and cross your eyes it sorta looks
like a cow. I'd be happy to send you the code.

I think "plot field lines" might be code for "velovect".
If so, I would get the one Martin Schultz modified for
overplotting, etc. It can be found under "Modified IDL
Routines -> Plotting Routines" on Ronn Kling's web page:
