One or 2 points. It would be nice to do like MultiplotH or MultiplotV for
both horizontal and vertical, and also, it would be nice to have another
parameter, like S, for STEP in points between each dot it makes, as im sure
that not everyone wants the points next to each other all the time. For example
For Y=0 to 31
Multi Plot X,Y,32,S+Y*32,16
Next Y
And before execution, the extension works out where the points should be
placed equally.
Hope this helps
