This is an oft-quoted missing function. I saw a class that someone did that
dealt with thick lines by drawing multiple lines, but can't remember where.
Source was right there tho'.
setpixel is another one that's missing, people have suggest using a
one-pixel long line, or possibly the imageProducer class.
>2. How does one do stipples? (i.e filled areas with patterns/tiles)
guess you'd have to set a cliprect (ie not a region, just a rectangle) and
keep on using 'drawImage' with offsets to fill it...
You could draw a tile of the stipple into an image to use as a brush, but I
don't know of any built in patterns (or windoze type Brushes).
Let me know if you find anything else out!
