Strictly speaking it doesn't do anything, it's just passed to the proc
callback function. I designed it this way because putpixel() takes four
parameters, the bitmap, the x/y position, and the color. This means you
can use putpixel() as a do_line() callback, with d representing the
color of the line. If you are writing your own callback function you can
use it for whatever you like: a color, a mode flag, even a pointer to a
structure if you do a bit of casting, or of course you can just ignore
it...
