Description

This command will draw a line from (x1,y1) to (x2,y2) using the current
drawing color. Lines may be drawn from any part of the display to any
other part. However, it may be important to note that the line may
interpolate differently right to left, or left to right. This means that a line
drawn in white from right to left may not fully erase the same line
drawn in black from left to right.
