Draw a single segment of a circle, adding the point to the ball line heap.
Arguments: CNT The number of this segment STP The step size for the circle K6(1 0) The x-coordinate of the new point on the circle, as a screen coordinate (T X) The y-coordinate of the new point on the circle, as an offset from the centre of the circle FLAG Set to $FF for the first call, so it sets up the first point in the heap but waits until the second call before drawing anything (as we need two points, i.e. two calls, before we can draw a line) K4(1 0) Pixel y-coordinate of the centre of the circle K5(1 0) Screen x-coordinate of the previous point added to the ball line heap (if this is not the first point) K5(3 2) Screen y-coordinate of the previous point added to the ball line heap (if this is not the first point)
Returns: CNT CNT is updated to CNT + STP A The new value of CNT K5(1 0) Screen x-coordinate of the point that we just added to the ball line heap K5(3 2) Screen y-coordinate of the point that we just added to the ball line heap FLAG Set to 0
