This paints a cirlce.

: blit(dblbuffer, screen, 0, 0, 0, 0, SCREEN_W, SCREEN_H);     // blit 1

This shows the circle on the screen.

: for (x = 1; x < 320; x++) {
:  rest(10);  /* slow it down so we can see it */
:  circlefill(dblbuffer, x - 1, 100, 50, 0); /* erase from last place */

This paints a circle in the exact same place as on is already painted.
Note that the first time in the loop the second argument is x - 1 == 
0. Cf. the first code line

:  circlefill(dblbuffer, x, 100, 50, 15); /* redraw at new place */

This paints a circle in a place a little shifted in some direction.

:  textout(dblbuffer, font, "Double buffering (mode 13h)", 0, 0, 15);
:  vsync();
:  blit(dblbuffer, screen, 0, 0, 0, 0, SCREEN_W, SCREEN_H);    // blit 2

This shows the doubly painted circle (which is equal to none) and the 
newly painted circle.

:     }



Right,
