Umm, just to nitpick here, but are you talking about the fillmode lines
(which require fewer memory changes due to only having to change one byte
per scan line) or the "regular" lines?  I got hold of (yanked) the FTA
regular line-drawing algorithm from Tim Meekins' Experience 2 demo and
ported it over to Merlin.  I have never used or tested it, though.  Maybe you
should ask Tim for some (commented? :) code source?
