I don't have *any* time for this today... :-)

But it will look *something* like this:

*******************************
FUNCTION CIRCLE, xcenter, ycenter, radius
points = (2 * !PI / 119.0) * FINDGEN(120)
x = xcenter + radius * COS(points )
y = ycenter + radius * SIN(points )
retValue = TRANSPOSE([[x],[y]])
RETURN, retValue
END

points = Circle(100, 100, 50)
FOR j=0, 119, 10 DO $
XYOutS, points(0,j), points(1,j), String(j/10), $
/Device, Alignment=1.0, Orientation=30*j/10
END
****************************************

Cheers!

David
