general purpose bit blitter

Along the lines of RAM access, I need to plot waveforms and such in a window.
I wrote a line drawing routine that calls WRASTOP, but it is painfully slow.
I suspect that it is because WRASTOP issues a refresh to the window, before
doing a blit evertime it is called. I've thought about reimplementing it to
build a bitmap in user memory of the line and then just doing a single WRASTOP
call to copy it to the window, but that seems like an awful lot of work just
to draw a line. Can anyone help?

P.S. This is on a 7300. Also, pleas e-mail any posted replys. I don't
always get to check the news often enough and sometimes miss it.
Thanx in advance...... :-)
