       Name: HLOIN                                                   [Show more]
       Type: Subroutine
   Category: Drawing lines
    Summary: Draw a horizontal line by sending a draw_hline command to the I/O
             processor
    Context: See this subroutine in context in the source code
 References: This subroutine is called as follows:
             * NLIN2 calls HLOIN
             * SUN (Part 3 of 4) calls HLOIN
             * TT15 calls HLOIN
             * TTX66 calls HLOIN


 Arguments:

   X1                   The screen x-coordinate of the start of the line

   X2                   The screen x-coordinate of the end of the line

   Y1                   The screen y-coordinate of the line

                        \
                        \ which will draw a horizontal line from (x1, y1) to
