I've been working on an animation package for the Tigre system, and
have run into a lack of code  as it were; before I write these
routines, I was wondering:

	Does anyone have a routine that copies a Form into an OpaqueForm, but
makes the inner white bits WHITE instead of transparent?
	(ala COPY MASK in resedit)

	Of course, that could easily be written with one of two routines, so:

	What about a routine to list all the bits enclosed by the larges 
	single-closed-curve in a rectangle, or:

	A Better shape:fil routine that works faster and chews up less
memory...

		Thanks,
