A sprite (which actually should be called "bob", period) is a small graphics
element. If you use Movax' sprite routines each sprite is an 8x8 image. You
can then draw it on the display using various routines.

           People think the Year 2000 problem refers to time.
           It is going to refer to a new Amiga that kicks PCs all
