I've been playing with a program for a while now, but I really need a 
FAST! algorithm for drawing thick lines of any arbitrary width. (In all
rotations). The lines at an angle must also look consistent with the line
straight and be able to be adjusted for aspect ratio. At the moment I use
an assembly routine to draw ellipses (appearing as circles on screen) but
it is too slow. Anyone help me?

Thanks in advance.
