I know this is going to sound pretty stupid, but I don't have access to the
Inside Macintosh books....

What is the best way to plot a single point in a given GrafPort (window, screen
or other)?

A friend has told me the only way he knows of is to MoveTo the proper point,
then Line(0,0) to draw it.  This strikes me as pretty strange; there should be
a primitive for drawing a single point.  Unfortunately, I don't have access to
IM, and neither the Turbo Pascal manual nor the LightspeedC 1.00 (!) manual
(which is all that the Comp Center here has -- the C is version 2.some) is
terribly easy to use for investigating the built-in routines.  Can someone
help me?
