        I'm using Allegro v2.2 in 640x480x256 mode.  I've got a map that is 
bigger than the actual screen by at least 4x.  What would be a faster way of 
scrolling other than brute-force blitting the image at a certain screen 
offset?  Would hardware-scrolling methods be usable once 32k and 64k color 
modes are being used?

        Any help would be appreciated.
