If you want a filled circle (which is not the same as a dot!), I'm
sure several people have written routines that do this... for example,
with jbsymbol (http://astroconst.org/jbiu/jbiu-doc/plot/jbsymbol.html)
you could do:
jbsymbol, 6, /fill
and then use psym=8 and symsize=whatever.

psym = 3 draws a single point, for which symsize do anything. Try
another psym choice

Interestingly, in the PostScript, a dot is a filled polygon. No
wonder
my 40000 point, psym=3 plots are HUGE.
