NAME
BitMapScale -- Perform raster scaling on a bit map. (V36)
SYNOPSIS
BitMapScale(bitScaleArgs)
A0
void BitMapScale(struct BitScaleArgs *);
FUNCTION
Scale a source bit map to a non-overlapping destination
bit map.
INPUTS
bitScaleArgs - structure of parameters describing scale:
bsa_SrcX, bsa_SrcY - origin of the source bits.
bsa_SrcWidth, bsa_SrcHeight - number of bits to scale from in x
and y.
bsa_DestX, bsa_DestY - origin of the destination.
bsa_DestWidth, bsa_DestHeight - resulting number of bits in x
and y. NOTE: these values are set by this function.
bsa_XSrcFactor:bsa_XDestFactor - equivalant to the ratio
srcWidth:destWidth, but not necessarily the same
numbers. Each must be in the range 1..16383.
bsa_YSrcFactor:bsa_YDestFactor - equivalant to the ratio
srcHeight:destHeight, but not necessarily the same
numbers. Each must be in the range 1..16383.
bsa_SrcBitMap - source of the bits to scale.
bsa_DestBitMap - destination for the bits to scale. This had
better be big enough!
bsa_Flags - future scaling options. Set it to zero!
bsa_XDDA, bsa_YDDA - for future use. Need not be set by user.
bsa_Reserved1, bsa_Reserved2 - for future use. Need not be set.
RESULT
The destWidth, destHeight fields are set by this function as
described above.
NOTES
o This function may use the blitter.
o Overlapping source and destination bit maps are not
supported.
o No check is made to ensure destBitMap is big enough: use
ScalerDiv to calculate a destination dimension.
BUGS
o This function does not use the HighRes Agnus 'Big Blit'
facility. You should not use XSrcFactor == XDestFactor,
where SrcWidth or DestWidth > 1024.
o Also, the blitter is used when expanding in the Y direction.
You should not expand in the Y direction if
((DestX & 0xf) + DestWidth) >= 1024 pixels. (Up to 1008 pixels
is always safe).

NAME
BltBitMap -- Move a rectangular region of bits in a BitMap.
SYNOPSIS
planecnt = BltBitMap(SrcBitMap, SrcX, SrcY, DstBitMap,
D0 A0 D0:16 D1:16 A1
DstX, DstY, SizeX, SizeY, Minterm, Mask [, TempA])
D2:16 D3:16 D4:16 D5:16 D6:8 D7:8 [A2]
ULONG BltBitMap(struct BitMap *, WORD, WORD, struct BitMap *,
WORD, WORD, WORD, WORD, UBYTE, UBYTE, UWORD *);
FUNCTION
Perform non-destructive blits to move a rectangle from one
area in a BitMap to another area, which can be on a different
BitMap.
This blit is assumed to be friendly: no error conditions (e.g.
a rectangle outside the BitMap bounds) are tested or reported.
INPUTS
SrcBitMap, DstBitMap - the BitMap(s) containing the
rectangles
- the planes copied from the source to the destination are
only those whose plane numbers are identical and less
than the minimum Depth of either BitMap and whose Mask
bit for that plane is non-zero.
- as a special case, if a plane pointer in the SrcBitMap
is zero, it acts as a pointer to a plane of all zeros, and
if the plane pointer is 0xffffffff, it acts as a pointer
to a plane of all ones. (Note: new for V36)
- SrcBitMap and DstBitMap can be identical if they point
to actual planes.
SrcX, SrcY - the x and y coordinates of the upper left corner
of the source rectangle. Valid range is positive
signed integer such that the raster word's offset
0..(32767-Size)
DstX, DstY - the x and y coordinates of the upper left
corner of the destination for the rectangle. Valid
range is as for Src.
SizeX, SizeY - the size of the rectangle to be moved. Valid
range is (X: 1..976; Y: 1..1023 such that final raster
word's offset is 0..32767)
Minterm - the logic function to apply to the rectangle when
A is non-zero (i.e. within the rectangle). B is the
source rectangle and C, D is the destination for the
rectangle.
- $0C0 is a vanilla copy
- $030 inverts the source before the copy
- $050 ignores the source and inverts the destination
- see the hardware reference manual for other combinations
Mask - the write mask to apply to this operation. Bits set
indicate the corresponding planes (if not greater than
the minimum plane count) are to participate in the
operation. Typically this is set to 0xff.
TempA - If the copy overlaps exactly to the left or right
(i.e. the scan line addresses overlap), and TempA is
non-zero, it points to enough chip accessable memory
to hold a line of A source for the blit (ie CHIP RAM).
BitBitMap will allocate (and free) the needed TempA if
none is provided and one is needed. Blit overlap is
determined from the relation of the first non-masked
planes in the source and destination bit maps.
RESULTS
planecnt - the number of planes actually involved in the blit.
NOTES
o This function may use the blitter.

NAME
BltClear - Clear a block of memory words to zero.
SYNOPSIS
BltClear( memBlock, bytecount, flags )
a1 d0 d1
void BltClear( void *, ULONG, ULONG );
FUNCTION
For memory that is local and blitter accessable, the most
efficient way to clear a range of memory locations is
to use the system's most efficient data mover, the blitter.
This command accepts the starting location and count and clears
that block to zeros.
INPUTS
memBloc - pointer to local memory to be cleared
memBlock is assumed to be even.
flags - set bit 0 to force function to wait until
the blit is done.
set bit 1 to use row/bytesperrow.
bytecount - if (flags & 2) == 0 then
even number of bytes to clear.
else
low 16 bits is taken as number of bytes
per row and upper 16 bits taken as
number of rows.
This function is somewhat hardware dependant. In the rows/bytesperrow
mode (with the pre-ECS blitter) rows must be <- 1024. In bytecount mode
multiple runs of the blitter may be used to clear all the memory.
Set bit 2 to use the upper 16 bits of the Flags as the data to fill
memory with instead of 0 (V36).
RESULT
The block of memory is initialized.

The programmer must initialize reserved[2]. Spriteimage must be
in CHIP memory. The height subfield of the SimpleSprite structure
must be set to reflect the height of the new spriteimage BEFORE
calling ChangeSprite(). The programmer may allocate two sprites to
handle a single attached sprite. After GetSprite(), ChangeSprite(),
the programmer can set the SPRITE_ATTACHED bit in posctl[1] of the
odd numbered sprite.
If you need more than 8 sprites, look up VSprites in the

graphics.library/CINIT graphics.library/CINIT
NAME
CINIT -- Initialize user copperlist to accept intermediate
user copper instructions.
SYNOPSIS
cl = CINIT( ucl , n )
cl = UCopperListInit( ucl , n )
a0 d0
struct CopList *UCopperListInit( struct UCopList *, UWORD );
FUNCTION
Allocates and/or initialize copperlist structures/buffers
internal to a UCopList structure.
This is a macro that calls UCopListInit. You must pass a
(non-initialized) UCopList to CINIT (CINIT will NOT allocate
a new UCopList if ucl==0 ). If (ucl != 0) it will initialize the
intermediate data buffers internal to a UCopList.
The maximum number of intermediate copper list instructions
that these internal CopList data buffers contain is specified
as the parameter n.
INPUTS
ucl - pointer to UCopList structure
n - number of instructions buffer must be able to hold
RESULTS
cl- a pointer to a buffer which will accept n intermediate copper
instructions.
NOTE: this is NOT a UCopList pointer, rather a pointer to the
UCopList's->FirstCopList sub-structure.
BUGS
CINIT will not actually allocate a new UCopList if ucl==0.
Instead you must allocate a block MEMF_PUBLIC|MEMF_CLEAR, the
sizeof(struct UCopList) and pass it to this function.
The system's FreeVPortCopLists function will take care of
deallocating it if they are called.
Prior to release V36 the CINIT macro had { } braces surrounding
the definition, preventing the proper return of the result value.
These braces have been removed for the V36 include definitions.

A0 D0 D1 A1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6
void ClipBlit
(struct RastPort *, WORD, WORD, struct RastPort *, WORD, WORD,
WORD, WORD, UBYTE);
FUNCTION
Performs the same function as BltBitMap(), except that it
takes into account the Layers and ClipRects of the layer library,
all of which are (and should be) transparent to you. So, whereas
BltBitMap() requires pointers to BitMaps, ClipBlit requires pointers to
the RastPorts that contain the Bitmaps, Layers, etcetera.
If you are going to blit blocks of data around via the RastPort of your
Intuition Window, you must call this routine (rather than BltBitMap()).
Either the Src RastPort, the Dest RastPort, both, or neither, can have
Layers. This routine takes care of all cases.
See BltBitMap() for a thorough explanation.
INPUTS
Src = pointer to the RastPort of the source for your blit
SrcX, SrcY = the topleft offset into Src for your data
Dest = pointer to the RastPort to receive the blitted data
DestX, DestY = the topleft offset into the destination RastPort
XSize = the width of the blit
YSize = the height of the blit
Minterm = the boolean blitter function, where SRCB is associated
with the Src RastPort and SRCC goes to the Dest RastPort

included, nor does te_Width include any effect of
rp_TxSpacing. The returned te_Width will be negative only
when FPF_REVPATH is set in the tf_Flags of the font -- the
effect of left-moving characters is ignored for the width of
a normal font, and the effect of right-moving characters is
ignored if a REVPATH font. These characters will, however,
be reflected in the bounding extent.

NAME
InitArea -- Initialize vector collection matrix
SYNOPSIS
InitArea( areainfo, buffer, maxvectors )
a0 a1 d0
void InitArea(struct AreaInfo *, void *, SHORT);
FUNCTION
This function provides initialization for the vector collection matrix
such that it has a size of (max vectors ). The size of the region
pointed to by buffer (short pointer) should be five (5) times as large
as maxvectors. This size is in bytes. Areafills done by using AreaMove,
AreaDraw, and AreaEnd must have enough space allocated in this table to
store all the points of the largest fill. AreaEllipse takes up two
vectors for every call. If AreaMove/Draw/Ellipse detect too many
vectors going into the buffer they will return -1.
INPUTS
areainfo - pointer to AreaInfo structure
buffer - pointer to chunk of memory to collect vertices
maxvectors - max number of vectors this buffer can hold
RESULT
Pointers are set up to begin storage of vectors done by
AreaMove, AreaDraw, and AreaEllipse.

void InitBitMap( struct BitMap *, BYTE, UWORD, UWORD );
FUNCTION
Initialize various elements in the BitMap structure to
correctly reflect depth, width, and height.
Must be used before use of BitMap in other graphics calls.
The Planes[8] are not initialized and need to be set up
by the caller. The Planes table was put at the end of the
structure so that it may be truncated to conserve space,
as well as extended. All routines that use BitMap should
only depend on existence of depth number of bitplanes.
The Flagsh and pad fields are reserved for future use and
should not be used by application programs.
INPUTS
bm - pointer to a BitMap structure (gfx.h)
depth - number of bitplanes that this bitmap will have
width - number of bits (columns) wide for this BitMap
height- number of bits (rows) tall for this BitMap

void InitRastPort(struct RastPort *);
FUNCTION
Initialize a RastPort structure to standard values.
INPUTS
rp = pointer to a RastPort structure.
RESULT
all entries in RastPort get zeroed out, with the following exceptions:
Mask, FgPen, AOLPen, and LinePtrn are set to -1.
The DrawMode is set to JAM2
The font is set to the standard system font
NOTES
The struct Rastport describes a control structure
for a write-able raster. The RastPort structure
describes how a complete single playfield display
will be written into. A RastPort structure is
referenced whenever any drawing or filling
operations are to be performed on a section of
memory.
The section of memory which is being used in this
way may or may not be presently a part of the
current actual onscreen display memory. The name
of the actual memory section which is linked to
the RastPort is referred to here as a "raster" or
as a bitmap.
NOTE: Calling the routine InitRastPort only
establishes various defaults. It does NOT
establish where, in memory, the rasters are
located. To do graphics with this RastPort the user
must set up the BitMap pointer in the RastPort.

SYNOPSIS
LockLayerRom( layer )
a5
void LockLayerRom( struct Layer * );
FUNCTION
Return when the layer is locked and no other task may
alter the ClipRect structure in the Layer structure.
This call does not destroy any registers.
This call nests so that callers in this chain will not lock
themselves out.
Do not have the Layer locked during a call to intuition.
There is a potential deadlock problem here, if intuition
needs to get other locks as well.
Having the layer locked prevents other tasks from using the
layer library functions, most notably intuition itself. So
be brief.
layers.library's LockLayer is identical to LockLayerRom.
INPUTS
layer - pointer to Layer structure
RESULTS
The layer is locked and the task can render assuming the
ClipRects will not change out from underneath it until
an UnlockLayerRom is called.

NAME
MrgCop -- Merge together coprocessor instructions.
SYNOPSIS
MrgCop( View )
A1
void MrgCop( struct View * );
FUNCTION
Merge together the display, color, sprite and user coprocessor
instructions into a single coprocessor instruction stream. This
essentially creates a per-display-frame program for the coprocessor.
This function MrgCop is used, for example, by the graphics animation
routines which effectively add information into an essentially
static background display. This changes some of the user
or sprite instructions, but not those which have formed the
basic display in the first place. When all forms of coprocessor
instructions are merged together, you will have a complete per-
frame instruction list for the coprocessor.
Restrictions: Each of the coprocessor instruction lists MUST be
internally sorted in min to max Y-X order. The merge routines
depend on this! Each list must be terminated using CEND(copperlist).
INPUTS
View - a pointer to the view structure whose coprocessor
instructions are to be merged.
RESULT
The view structure will now contain a complete, sorted/merged
list of instructions for the coprocessor, ready to be used by
the display processor. The display processor is told to use
this new instruction stream through the instruction LoadView().

FUNCTION

current blitter queue. The pointer bp points to a blit structure
containing, among other things, the link information, and the
address of your routine which is to be called when the blitter
queue finally gets around to this specific request. When your
routine is called, you are in control of the blitter ... it is
not busy with anyone else's requests. This means that you can
directly specify the register contents and start the blitter.
See the description of the blit structure and the uses of QBlit
in the section titled Graphics Support in the OS Kernel Manual.
Your code must be written to run either in supervisor or user
mode on the 68000.
INPUTS
bp - pointer to a blit structure
RESULT
Your routine is called when the blitter is ready for you.
In general requests for blitter usage through this channel are
put in front of those who use the blitter via OwnBlitter and
DisownBlitter. However for small blits there is more overhead
using the queuer than Own/Disown Blitter.

void QBSBlit( struct bltnode * );
FUNCTION
Call a user routine for use of the blitter, enqueued separately from
the QBlit queue. Calls the user routine contained in the blit
structure when the video beam is located at a specified position
onscreen. Useful when you are trying to blit into a visible part
of the screen and wish to perform the data move while the beam is
not trying to display that same area. (prevents showing part of
an old display and part of a new display simultaneously). Blitter
requests on the QBSBlit queue take precedence over those on the
regular blitter queue. The beam position is specified the blitnode.
INPUTS
bsp - pointer to a blit structure. See description in the
Graphics Support section of the manual for more info.
RESULT
User routine is called when the QBSBlit queue reaches this
request AND the video beam is in the specified position.
If there are lots of blits going on and the video beam
has wrapped around back to the top it will call all the
remaining bltnodes as fast as it can to try and catch up.
BUGS
Not very smart when getting blits from different tasks.
They all get put in same queue so there are unfortunately
some interdependencies with the beam syncing.

FUNCTION
Calculate the expression (factor*numerator/denominator) such
that the result is the same as the width of the destination
result of BitMapScale when the factor here is the width of
the source, and the numerator and denominator are the
XDestFactor and XSrcFactor for BitMapScale.

NAME
ScrollRaster -- Push bits in rectangle in raster around by

SYNOPSIS
ScrollRaster(rp, dx, dy, xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax)
A1 D0 D1 D2 D3 D4 D5
void ScrollRaster
(struct RastPort *, WORD, WORD, WORD, WORD, WORD, WORD);
FUNCTION
Move the bits in the raster by (dx,dy) towards (0,0)
The space vacated is RectFilled with BGPen.
Limit the scroll operation to the rectangle defined
by (xmin,ymin)(xmax,ymax). Bits outside will not be
affected. If xmax,ymax is outside the rastport then use
the lower right corner of the rastport.
If you are dealing with a SimpleRefresh layered RastPort you
should check rp->Layer->Flags & LAYER_REFRESH to see if
there is any damage in the damage list. If there is you should
call the appropriate BeginRefresh(Intuition) or BeginUpdate(graphics)
routine sequence.
INPUTS
rp - pointer to a RastPort structure
dx,dy are integers that may be postive, zero, or negative
xmin,ymin - upper left of bounding rectangle
xmax,ymax - lower right of bounding rectangle
EXAMPLE
ScrollRaster(rp,0,1) /* shift raster up by one row */
ScrollRaster(rp,-1,-1) /* shift raster down and to the right by 1 pixel
BUGS
In 1.2/V1.3 if you ScrollRaster a SUPERBITMAP exactly left or
right, and there is no TmpRas attached to the RastPort, the system
will allocate one for you, but will never free it or record its
location. This bug has been fixed for V1.4. The workaround for
1.2/1.3 is to attach a valid TmpRas of size at least
MAXBYTESPERROW to the RastPort before the call.
Begining with V1.4 ScrollRaster adds the shifted areas into the
damage list for SIMPLE_REFRESH windows. Due to unacceptable
system overhead, the decision was made NOT to propagate this
shifted area damage for SMART_REFRESH windows.

SYNOPSIS
SetFont(rp, font)
A1 A0
void SetFont(struct RastPort *, struct TextFont *);
FUNCTION
This function sets the font in the RastPort to that described
by font, and updates the text attributes to reflect that
change. This function clears the effect of any previous
soft styles.
INPUTS
rp - the RastPort in which the text attributes are to be changed
font - pointer to a TextFont structure returned from OpenFont()
or OpenDiskFont()
RESULT
NOTES
This function had previously been documented that it would
accept a null font. This practice is discouraged.
o Use of a RastPort with a null font with text routines has
always been incorrect and risked the guru.
o Keeping an obsolete font pointer in the RastPort is no more
dangerous than keeping a zero one there.
o SetFont(rp, 0) causes spurious low memory accesses under
some system software releases.
As of V36, the following Amiga font variants are no longer
directly supported:
fonts with NULL tf_CharSpace and non-NULL tf_CharKern.
fonts with non-NULL tf_CharSpace and NULL tf_CharKern.
fonts with NULL tf_CharSpace and NULL tf_CharKern with
a tf_CharLoc size component greater than tf_XSize.
Attempts to SetFont these one of these font variants will
cause the system to modify your font to make it acceptable.
BUGS
Calling SetFont() on in-code TextFonts (ie fonts not
OpenFont()ed) will result in a loss of 24 bytes from
the system as of V36.
This can be resolved by calling StripFont().

NAME
Text -- Write text characters (no formatting).
SYNOPSIS
Text(rp, string, length)
A1 A0 D0-0:16
void Text(struct RastPort *, STRPTR, WORD);
FUNCTION
This graphics function writes printable text characters to the
specified RastPort at the current position. No control meaning
is applied to any of the characters, thus only text on the
current line is output.
The current position in the RastPort is updated to the next
character position.
If the characters displayed run past the RastPort boundary,
the current position is truncated to the boundary, and
thus does not equal the old position plus the text length.
INPUTS
rp - a pointer to the RastPort which describes where the
text is to be output
string - the address of string to output
length - the number of characters in the string.
If zero, there are no characters to be output.
NOTES
o This function may use the blitter.
o Changing the text direction with RastPort->TxSpacing is
not supported.
BUGS
For V34 and earlier:
o The maximum string length (in pixels) is limited to
(1024 - 16 = 1008) pixels wide.
o A text string whose last character(s) have a
tf_CharLoc size component that extends to the right of
the rightmost of the initial and final CP positions
will be (inappropriately) clipped.

FUNCTION
This function determines a more complete metric of the space
that a text string would render into than the TextLength()
function.
INPUTS
rp - a pointer to the RastPort which describes where the
text attributes reside.
string - the address of the string to determine the length of.
count - the number of characters in the string.
If zero, there are no characters in the string.
textExtent - a structure to hold the result.
RESULTS
textExtent is filled in as follows:
te_Width - same as TextLength() result: the rp_cp_x
advance that rendering this text would cause.
te_Height - same as tf_YSize. The height of the
font.
te_Extent.MinX - the offset to the left side of the
rectangle this would render into. Often zero.
te_Extent.MinY - same as -tf_Baseline. The offset
from the baseline to the top of the rectangle
this would render into.
te_Extent.MaxX - the offset of the left side of the
rectangle this would render into. Often the
same as te_Width-1.
te_Extent.MaxY - same as tf_YSize-tf_Baseline-1.
The offset from the baseline to the bottom of
the rectanangle this would render into.

ULONG TextFit(struct RastPort *, STRPTR, UWORD,
struct TextExtent *, struct TextExtent *, WORD, UWORD, UWORD);
FUNCTION
This function determines how many of the characters of the
provided string will fit into the space described by the
constraining parameters. It also returns the extent of
that number of characters.
INPUTS
rp - a pointer to the RastPort which describes where the
text attributes reside.
string - the address of string to determine the constraint of
strLen - The number of characters in the string.
If zero, there are no characters in the string.
textExtent - a structure to hold the extent result.
constrainingExtent - the extent that the text must fit in.
This can be NULL, indicating only the constrainingBit
dimensions will describe the constraint.
strDirection - the offset to add to the string pointer to
get to the next character in the string. Usually 1.
Set to -1 and the string to the end of the string to
perform a TextFit() anchored at the end. No other value
is valid.
constrainingBitWidth - an alternative way to specify the
rendering box constraint width that is independent of
the rendering origin. Range 0..32767.
constrainingBitHeight - an alternative way to specify the
rendering box constraint height that is independent of
the rendering origin. Range 0..32767.
RESULTS
chars - the number of characters from the origin of the
given string that will fit in both the constraining
extent (which specifies a CP bound and a rendering
box relative to the origin) and in the rendering width
and height specified.
NOTES
The result is zero chars and an empty textExtent when the fit
cannot be performed. This occurs not only when no text will
fit in the provided constraints, but also when:
- the RastPort rp's rp_TxSpacing sign and magnitude is so
great it reverses the path of the text.
- the constrainingExtent does not include x = 0.

D0 A1 A0 D0:16
WORD TextLength(struct RastPort *, STRPTR, WORD);
FUNCTION
This graphics function determines the length that text data
would occupy if output to the specified RastPort with the
current attributes. The length is specified as the number of
raster dots: to determine what the current position would be
after a Write() using this string, add the length to cp_x
(cp_y is unchanged by Write()). Use the newer TextExtent() to
get more information.
INPUTS
rp - a pointer to the RastPort which describes where the
text attributes reside.
string - the address of string to determine the length of
count - the string length. If zero, there are no characters
in the string.
RESULTS
length - the number of pixels in x this text would occupy, not
including any negative kerning that may take place at
the beginning of the text string, nor taking into
account the effects of any clipping that may take
place.
NOTES
Prior to V36, the result length occupied only the low word of
d0 and was not sign extended into the high word.

A length that would overflow single word arithmatic is not
calculated correctly.

NAME
WaitBlit -- Wait for the blitter to be finished before proceeding
with anything else.
SYNOPSIS
WaitBlit()
void WaitBlit( void );
FUNCTION
WaitBlit returns when the blitter is idle. This function should
normally only be used when dealing with the blitter in a
synchronous manner, such as when using OwnBlitter and DisownBlitter.
WaitBlit does not wait for all blits queued up using QBlit or
QBSBlit. You should call WaitBlit if you are just about to modify or
free some memory that the blitter may be using.
INPUTS
none
RESULT
Your program waits until the blitter is finished.
This routine does not use any the CPU registers.
do/d1/a0/a1 are preserved by this routine.
It may change the condition codes though.
BUGS
When examining bits with the CPU right after a blit, or when freeeing
temorary memory used by the blitter, a WaitBlit() may be required.
Note that many graphics calls fire up the blitter, and let it run.
The CPU does not need to wait for the blitter to finish before
returning.
Because of a bug in agnus (prior to all revisions of fat agnus)
this code may return too soon when the blitter has, in fact, not
started the blit yet, even though BltSize has been written.
This most often occurs in a heavily loaded systen with extended memory,
HIRES, and 4 bitplanes.
WaitBlit currently tries to avoid this agnus problem by testing
the BUSY bit multiple times to make sure the blitter has started.
If the blitter is BUSY at first check, this function busy waits.
This initial hardware bug was fixed as of the first "Fat Agnus" chip,
as used in all A500 and A2000 computers.
Because of a different bug in agnus (currently all revisions thru ECS)
this code may return too soon when the blitter has, in fact, not
stopped the blit yet, even though blitter busy has been cleared.
This most often occurs in a heavily loaded systen with extended memory,
in PRODUCTIVITY mode, and 2 bitplanes.
WaitBlit currently tries to avoid this agnus problem by testing
the BUSY bit multiple times to make sure the blitter has really
written its final word of desination data.

match. This metric ranges from MAXFONTMATCHWEIGHT (perfect match)
through lower positive numbers to zero (unsuitable match).
INPUTS
reqTextAttr - the text attributes requested.
targetTextAttr - the text attributes of a potential match.
targetTags - tags describing the extended target attributes, or
zero if not available.
The [t]ta_Name fields of the [T]TextAttr structures are not used.
The tags affect the weight only when both a) the reqTextAttr
has the FSF_TAGGED bit set in ta_Style, and b) targetTags is
not zero. To fairly compare two different weights, the inclusion
or exclusion of tags in the weighing must be the same for both.
RESULTS
weight -- a positive weight describes suitable matches, in
increasing desirability. MAXFONTMATCHWEIGHT is a perfect
match. A zero weight is an unsuitable match.

NAME
WritePixel -- Change the pen num of one specific pixel in a
specified RastPort.
SYNOPSIS
error = WritePixel( rp, x, y)
d0 a1 D0 D1
LONG WritePixel( struct RastPort *, SHORT, SHORT );
FUNCTION
Changes the pen number of the selected pixel in the specified
RastPort to that currently specified by PenA, the primary
drawing pen. Obeys minterms in RastPort.
INPUTS
rp - a pointer to the RastPort structure
(x,y) - point within the RastPort at which the selected
pixel is located.
RESULT
error = 0 if pixel succesfully changed
= -1 if (x,y) is outside the RastPort

NAME
WritePixelArray8 -- write the pen number value of a rectangular array
of pixels starting at a specified x,y location and continuing
through to another x,y location within a certain RastPort. (V36)
SYNOPSIS
count = WritePixelArray8(rp,xstart,ystart,xstop,ystop,array,temprp)
D0 A0 D0:16 D1:16 D2:16 D3:16 A2 A1
LONG WritePixelArray8(struct RastPort *, UWORD, UWORD,
UWORD, UWORD, UBYTE *, struct RastPort *);
FUNCTION
For each pixel in a rectangular region, decode the pen number selector
from a linear array of pen numbers into the bit-planes used to describe
a particular rastport.
INPUTS
rp - pointer to a RastPort structure
(xstart,ystart) - starting point in the RastPort
(xstop,ystop) - stopping point in the RastPort
array - pointer to an array of UBYTEs from which to fetch the
pixel data. Allocate at least
((((width+15)>>4)<<4)*(ystop-ystart+1)) bytes.
temprp - temporary rastport (copy of rp with Layer set == NULL,
temporary memory allocated for
temprp->BitMap with Rows set == 1,
temprp->BytesPerRow == (((width+15)>>4)<<1),
and temporary memory allocated for
temprp->BitMap->Planes[])
RESULT
For each pixel in the array:
Pen - (0..255) number at that position is returned
NOTE
xstop must be >= xstart
ystop must be >= ystart

D0 A0 D0:16 D1:16 D2 A2 A1
LONG WritePixelLine8(struct RastPort *, UWORD, UWORD,
UWORD, UBYTE *, struct RastPort *);
FUNCTION
For each pixel in a horizontal region, decode the pen number selector
from a linear array of pen numbers into the bit-planes used to describe
a particular rastport.
INPUTS
rp - pointer to a RastPort structure
(x,y) - a point in the RastPort
width - count of horizontal pixels to write
array - pointer to an array of UBYTEs from which to fetch the pixel data
allocate at least (((width+15)>>4)<<4) bytes.
temprp - temporary rastport (copy of rp with Layer set == NULL,
temporary memory allocated for
temprp->BitMap with Rows set == 1,
temprp->BytesPerRow == (((width+15)>>4)<<1),
and temporary memory allocated for
temprp->BitMap->Planes[])
RESULT
For each pixel in the array:
Pen - (0..255) number at that position is returned
NOTE
width must be non negative
