Thanks to all who replied to my request.
Results! I have completed a faster flood fill routine based on the code posted
by Colin Taylor and rewritten in asm. It can work directly on a mode #13
screen or on a virtual screen of any size, but only in 256 colours. One should
find it in the contribs at the official web site soon, along with a simple
fractal boundary trace demo.
Thanks again for everybody's help.
