: In IDL or PV-Wave, you could use the PSYM keyword:

: PLOTS, xarr, yarr, /DEVICE, PSYM=3 ;or other symbols. see manual

: I hope this helps.

Thanks Ken and Mati!

Using PSym=3 was all that I needed. And to think I wasted several
hours before posting . . . :)

When I did not use PSym, the last and first points in the arrays
were connected as was suggested. This was a problem since I
wanted to fill in part of insersecting polylines. I have
an outer contour and an inner contour and I want to fill only
the "doughnut" and not the "hole." Who knows, there is
probably a way to do this POLYFILL but I could not figure it
out. I did use POLYFILLV to get the points inside the
two overlapping boundaries.
