Well, first of all, its good to know that some people visit our webpage there
(or atleast know about it), and i guess Thank You for those optimizations,
however I did know that routine was not to its full potential... =P  I had
planned to fix it up, but got discouraged from working on them when I was
attempting to make a SOS Library out of it and found out the Libraries cant
use JP or Call... =P  Hmm, I will make that change in the Pixel routine, and
give you credit for that, but there are also some very drastic changes I want
to put into the Line and Rectangle routines that accompany it.  Currently, the
H_Line and V_Line routines just update the coordinates and call the Pixel
routine for Every pixel, and that is taking up too many clocks as well.  The
idea I have to change it, I got from Patrick Davison and his Wakagmba source
(made know to me by Sam Heald) and I shall give him much credit for the
sequence when I incorporate something similar to it in my routines. Expect
another release of these routines soon, and you'll find them on the TCPA once
again... well, Thanks for the feedback, cya... =)
