Hmm... never noticed it in DLineArt, though some of the algorithms did leave
parts of lines on the screen. This is SMOP (simply a matter of programming).
The one single screenblanker I did (DStringArt, for use with DMouse) does not
leave pixel artifacts. It does, however, run slowly, since it looks like crap
when run quickly. I tied it to the vertical interval, drawing 1 line per frame.
