I would be interested in hearing about the blitter as well.
Some points of interest would be :
o What sort of operations can it perform on its source and
destination?
o What are the memory alignment restrictions if any?
o How do the Blitter and 68000 share the bus?
o What are parameters available to the blitter?
o What does a blitter bus cycle look like?
I think there is definitely an article possibility here that I would
think would be very fun/interesting to write. Any info appreciated,
pointers are ok too.
