The good news:
I'm back from my cristmas vaccation.  Did anybody miss me? :-)

The bad news:
I am trying to write routines to display sprites on the screen.
So far I have failed miserably :-(
What I want to do is this:
Create a sprite
Draw it
Dispose of it
(and now for the hard part)
Move it on the screen, cycling through four "leg movements" and keep what is
behind it in a bitmap *which is the same size as the sprite(not full screen)*
Make it relatively fast.

Has anybody written something (remotely) like this?  Is that person willing to
share it?
Anything in Pascal or C would be greatly apreciated(appreciated?,/ap*re[a-z]*/?)

Thank you.
