Completely OT at this point, since this is Stella and not an Apple ][
list, but...didn't the Apple ][ have "shapes" which could be defined by
line segments and then displayed, rotated, scaled, and so forth? I
recall typing in a program to do this kind of thing, but perhaps I was
typing in the software to do the shapes as well as the shapes
themselves.
Now back to your regularly scheduled Atari 2600 hacking...
