 I'm looking for an algorithm to use in moving pixels on a VGA 
 screen. What I'm trying to do is make it appear like stars are
 passing by. I've tried using a line drawing routine with the
 screen center as the starting point and random ending points
 around the edge of the screen. This didn't work to well!
 Any help is appreciated!
