I can't give any blitter specifics because I don't know any.  Besides
that, it is a custom VLSI part and some of its details are still
subject to change.  Please wait for an official Atari announcement --
I'm sorry I can't be more helpful.  Mainly, though, it does most of
what you would expect a blitter to do.  I think it does almost
everything you can do with the line-A blt, and more, but (of course)
in hardware, not software.
