Coordinates
The X and Y coordinates specify logical points in a logical screen that is the same size in all screen modes with the same aspect ratio regardless of the number of physical pixels. The usual BBC screen size is 1280 horizontal logical pixels by 1024 vertical logical pixels.
Plot commands
The plot command is a bitmap indicating what action to perform.

Calling from BBC BASIC
PLOT k,x,y sends VDU 25,k,x;y; MOVE x,y sends PLOT 4,x,y DRAW x,y sends PLOT 5,x,y On BASICs that support the commands: MOVE BY x,y sends PLOT 0,x,y DRAW BY x,y sends PLOT 1,x,y PLOT BY x,y sends PLOT 65,x,y PLOT x,y sends PLOT 69,x,y FILL BY x,y sends PLOT 129,x,y FILL x,y sends PLOT 133,x,y LINE x1,y1,x2,y2 sends MOVE x1,y1:DRAW x2,y2 CIRCLE x,y,r sends MOVE x,y:PLOT 145,r,0 CIRCLE FILL x,y,r sends MOVE x,y:PLOT 153,r,0 ELLIPSE x,y,a,b sends MOVE x,y:MOVE a,0:PLOT 193,0,b ELLIPSE FILL x,y,a,b sends MOVE x,y:MOVE a,0:PLOT 201,0,b RECTANGLE FILL x,y,w,h sends MOVE x,y:PLOT 101,x+w,y+h RECTANGLE FILL x1,y1,w,h TO x2,y2 sends MOVE x1,y1:MOVE x1+w,y1+h:PLOT 189,x2,y2 RECTANGLE x1,y1,w,h TO x2,y2 sends MOVE x1,y1:MOVE x1+w,y1+h:PLOT 190,x2,y2 RECTANGLE x1,y1,w,h TO x2,y2 sends MOVE x1,y1:MOVE x1+w,y1+h:PLOT 191,x2,y2 RECTANGLE SWAP x1,y1,w,h TO x2,y2 sends MOVE x1,y1:MOVE x1+w,y1+h:PLOT 191,x2,y2 RECTANGLE x,y,w,h sends MOVE x,y:PLOT 13,x+w,y:PLOT 13,x+w,y+h:PLOT 13,x,y+h:PLOT 13,x,y
