********************************************************
*WELL THIS IS THE ACTUAL SCROLLINE. EACH CHARACTER IS *
*IS PUT ON THE SCREEN BY ITS OWN LITTLE ROUTINE. *
*WHICH PUTS ITS CHARACTER TO A PARTICULAR POINT IN THE *
*BUFFER. THE FIRST PART OFF THE CHARACTER IS ADDED TO *
*THE SCREEN WHILE THE SECOND PART IS MOVED STRAIGHT TO *
*THE SCREEN. IE FIRST WORD ADDED SECOND WORD MOVED *
*THIS IS DONE (IN GENERAL) FOR THE FIRST 29 LINES BUT *
*AS EACH CHARACTER IS 8 LINES LOWER THAN THE LAST THE *
*LAST 8 LINES WOULD BE ADDED TO THEM SELVES AS THE *
*PREVIOUS CHARACTER WOULD NOT HAVE CLEARED THE SCREEN *
*WITH ITS OWN CHARACTER. IF YOU CAN UNDERSTAND *
*THIS BIT THEN YOU HAVE THE KEY TO THE TWIST SCROLL. *
* TAKE YOUR TIME IT WILL ALL BECOME CLEAR. *
* THE SCROLL WAS WORKED OUT VERY CAREFULLY ORIGIANLLY *
*SO THAT WHERE A CHARACTER EXTENDS OVER THE BOTTOM OF *
*THE BUFFER IT IS DRAWN OVER AT THE TOP. THIS IS DONE *
*IN THE DBF LOOPS SO YOU'LL HAVE TO STUDY THEM *
*CAREFULLY TO SEE WHERE. *
