I was going to ask what you have against [code] boxes until I noticed what you were doing with the italics. If I recall, SourceCoder has symbols for those, but I'll have to double-check. I'm looking at this, and I'm not quite seeing how it would properly erase the end of its tail. Would you care to clarify how that works without a list of previous coordinates?

(PV,FV) chases (nMin,nMax)'s breadcrumbs! The coordinate-step holds that the former won't be misdirected by the head brushing against the tail.

Thank you for having the forethought to keep the code as-is. I had originally planned to use SourceCoder, but it doesn't cooperate during export with those variables in there.

I figured it was something like that, but I'm unfamiliar with the term coordinate-step. Smile Should I JFGI, or would you mind explaining?

I pulled the term out of thin air, but a glossary entry from an affiliate of the Department of Health and Human Services shares the intended significance and states it beautifully thus: "The interval spacing between two successive points." That is, the snake body moves two pixels at a time, drawing at the neck as well as the head once per iteration.
