*  Name:
*     palDrange

*  Purpose:
*     Normalize angle into range +/- pi

*  Language:
*     Starlink ANSI C

*  Type of Module:
*     Library routine

*  Invocation:
*     palDrange( double angle )

*  Arguments:
*     angle = double (Given)
*        The angle in radians.

*  Description:
*     The result is "angle" expressed in the range +/- pi. If the
*     supplied value for "angle" is equal to +/- pi, it is returned
*     unchanged.
