- Hmm, the way I understand what you're saying, each call the SetB or SetA or
- drawmode, they re-calc the miniterms each time. Would it then be
- acceptable to change the values in the Rport structure for the drawmode and
- Bpen manually, then called SetAPen() to collate it all, or is this an evil
- thing to do? (Would it even work, much less be system friendly?)
