Short:    Patches ScrollRaster() to look nicer

Type:     util/boot
Requires: Kickstart 37+

  COMPATIBLE:   Vinced (Mostly)
                Vinci

  INCOMPATIBLE: KingCon
                Original CON:
                Vinced (When you type or press return above a line, etc)

This program will patch the ScrollRaster() function to use my own routine, which
uses  ClipBlit().  The  main  bonus is that the new area of raster isn't cleared
after the scroll, so new text, etc is drawn on top of the old text.  The  result
is most notable when scrolling in a shell.

You can start and stop blitscroll at any time. I suggest putting  the  following
line in you s:user-startup after copying blitscroll to c:

  RUN >NIL: c:blitscroll

To stop blitscroll, just break it's process.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Use this program at your own risk. Not every program  will  be  compatible  with
blitscroil,  as  some programs may rely on the new area of raster being cleared.
Let me know which programs produce strange results, and I will  make  blitscroll
use the old ScrollRaster() for these programs, or I will develop a  prefs  file,
in which you can select the programs to ignore yourself.
