pro multi, n	;Multiple wrap of existing color tables
;+
; NAME:
;	MULTI
;
; PURPOSE:
;	Expand the current color table to wrap around N times.
;
; CATEGORY:
;	Image display.
;
; CALLING SEQUENCE:
;	MULTI, N
;
; INPUTS:
;	N:	The number of times the color table will wrap.  This 
;		parameter does not need not be an integer.
;
; OUTPUTS:
;	No explicit outputs, color tables are loaded.
;
; COMMON BLOCKS:
;	COLORS, the IDL color table common block, contains current color 
;	tables, loaded by LOADCT, ADJCT, HLS, HSV, etc.
;
; SIDE EFFECTS:
;	Color tables are loaded.
;
; RESTRICTIONS:
;	One of the above procedures must have been called.
;
; PROCEDURE:
;	Tables are expanded by a factor of n.
;
; EXAMPLE:
;	Display an image, load color table 1, and make that color table
;	"wrap around" 3 times.  Enter:
;		TVSCL, DIST(256)	;A simple image.
;		LOADCT, 1		;Load color table 1.
;		MULTI, 3		;See how the new color table affects
;					;the image.
