	I've been fiddling around with Amiga's sprites recently and it
doesn't seem possible to control the depth of a sprite. When I had an Atari
800 way back in the 80's, this was possible to do - and very easy. I must
be missing the command(s) to do this on my Amiga.
	What I am asking is how to have a sprite go BEHIND certain bitplanes
or certain colors and IN FRONT of other colors or bitplanes.
	Specifically, I want to be able to write text over my sprites rather
than have the sprites obscure my text.
