I'd like to know what the correct (and fastest) ways to draw some simple
things are. I've been told to avoid relative drawing, rectf, ... So what
SHOULD I do to do the following (2d) things FAST.
1) draw a line segment (instead of move2/draw2)
eg: line(float,float,float,float)
2) draw a small dot, (say 3x3 pixels - but the exact size isn't important - it
just needs to be small, yet big enough to be seen) - for now I use
rectf with a small size
Thanks,
Mike
