   Understanding what clipping is was the easy part.

   Thats what I've beein doing too.   But at some point I saw sense in not   
   going thru slews of dots that are not going to be displayed anyway, likely   
   speeding up the drawing process itself.    Especially as I wanted to be able   
   to draw in a full 16-bit signed int range, while only actually viewing a   
   small part of it.
