Just thought of something else. If you can sort the sequences you might be
able to do a binary search rather than a sequential search.

sequence phl phl = {{{x1,y1},a1},{{x2,y2},a2},...{{xn,yn},an}}

for b = 1 to 256 do
     c = phl[b][1][1]
     d = phl[b][1][2]
     if phl[b][2] = i then
          ellipse(phl[b][2],1,{c-2,d-2},{c+1,d+1})
     end if
end for

P.S. I had to create variables c and d because when I had the element
directly in the ellipse function, the first y value never changed
(!?).
i.e.  {1,2},{4,2}..{10,2},{14,2}
