Set the "way back" machine to the 13th of June 1985. That was the year that the Amstrad cpc6128 was released. (Ok. Keep the cheering under control. That is not my main point... lol) One year earlier (1984) saw the beginning of the cpc464. The '6128' had a very fast 'fill' command (for those days) and the owners of the '464' wanted the same. Many routines and patches later saw a fill routine but it was not as fast... at the cost of memory... This was the result of "adding" a feature.
I do not believe that N7 needs to have anything 'added'. Not added. Modified...
N7 already has 'fill' for ellipses and rectangles by the use of the final parameter, "1". N7 has 'draw polygon'. Modify the command to include the 'fill' parameter. The 'draw line' command (draw line x1,y1,x2,y2 actual coords) could be modified to draw line - x2,y2 relative coords). Just a few thoughts. Of course I have no idea how to do all this... lol
