PSet [target ,] [STEP] (x, y) [,color]

target
STEP
(x, y)
color

target specifies buffer to draw on. target may be an image created with ImageCreate or Get (Graphics). If omitted, target defaults to the screen's current work page.

(x, y) are the coordinates of the pixel. STEP if present, indicates that (x, y) coordinates are relative to the graphics cursor position. If omitted, (x, y) are relative to the upper left-hand corner of target. The x and y coordinates are affected by the last call to the View (Graphics) and Window statements, and respect the current clipping region as set by the View (Graphics) statement.

color specifies the color attribute. If omitted, color defaults to the current foreground color. See Color. color is graphics mode specific, see Color and Screen (Graphics) for details.

Optimization note: while Pset and the opposite Point provide valid results, they are very slow. Much better performance can be achieved by using Poke after calculating the address yourself from values obtained from ImageInfo and ScreenInfo, or even more usig inline ASM.

' Set an appropriate Screen mode.
