Abstract
A prerendered line texture stored in memory is used to generate an anti-aliased destination line in any direction to be displayed on a screen. A combination of tiling, stretching, and/or mirroring is used to generate the anti-aliased destination line. A blitter blits a rectangle in the prerendered line texture to a destination rectangle in the frame buffer that is displayed on the screen.
