meh that is actually kind of difficult because the picture and the screen memory is mapped differently........uhm let me try and make up a routine:

uhhhhhhhhhh

Copy(y*h+x,L6,12) will do the first row so..
For(e,0,63)
Copy(y+e*h+x,e*12+L6,12)
End
y*h->a
0->b
64
while -1->e
copy(a,b+L6,12)
a+h->a
b+12->b
e
end

Try that, I think it might be able to work

You can store your picture as a bunch of 8x8 sprites, then draw 13x9 of them to the buffer. Like a tilemapper, except without the tile lookup.

Edit:
This reminds me, why doesn't Axe support 8xN sprites yet?

I could imagine 4*4 (or 5*5) being used a lot...

As for the topic of this thread, idk to that as well, I'd go with what either calc84 or squidgetx said

For that matter, why doesn't Axe support m*n sprites yet?

Yeah, I was thinking of changing the Bitmap() command's code to use a custom, fully clipped routine that would make it more useful.  Currently its used very rarely because the OS's routine is slow, buggy, and just sucks.  I don't mind having a big bulky routine as long as the ease of use makes up the difference.

If either you or Runer or anyone else wants to design a routine, I'd be happy to include it.  It needs:

• Clipping in all directions
• Supports aligned and unaligned sprites
• Sprite dimensions built into data
• Data itself can be in any format (byte aligned not necessary)
• Usable on any buffer
• Extra argument to allow both "Or" or "Xor" drawing methods ("And" would be nice too)

Don't worry about the register/stack juggling for input, I can optimize that myself.

The complexity of this routine is the only thing holding me back right now   The reason for the last condition is that I don't want separate routines for each method, this is a command that should be optimized for usefulness, not for size or speed.  If you needed the later, you'd be using 8x8 or smaller anyway.
