[Oberon] PO2013 - CopyBlock

[Joerg]

    	Tomas
CopyBlock has to take care of overlaps and in its general form has to mask, copy and shift bits.To add a special case for vertical scrolling (sx = dx) can make sense as you only have to mask and copy and leave out the shifts. (as n=0)

What is special with horizontal scrolling? Where do you see the optimization compared to the original CopyBlock?

Right.

That is a current penalty for the code case „IF dy = sy THEN“
missing. Calling proc relies on unused bottom line beneath,
which could be cached w/ COPY, but seems overkill.
