If you specify PSym=8, !P.PSym=8 (or -8 for either) or use the UserSym
procedure, you have the ability to specify your own symbol as opposed to
a built-in IDL symbol. Some of the IDL symbols are point, plus, X,
square, diamond, etc. If you don't like those, or want, perhaps, a
circle, you would specify a user symbol. The online help for UserSym
contains some info on how to specify and use your own symbols.
