===== BOX ✓ =====

===== SYNTAX =====
     BOX [x1], [y1] TO x2, y2[, c ]
     BOX TO x2, y2[, c ]

==== PURPOSE ====

This instruction draws a rectangle on the screen, starting from the coordinates ''(x1, y1)''
to arrive at the coordinates ''(x2, y2)'', using the color ''c''. The start
coordinates can be omitted: in this case, ugBASIC will draw starting from 
the last drawn position. If the color is 
omitted, the last color selected with the ''INK'' or ''PEN'' command will be used. 
Finally, the default line style is full but a 16 bit bitmask can be set with the ''SET LINE''
command.



==== EXAMPLE ====
    BOX 10,10 TO 100,100,WHITE
    BOX TO 100,100
    BOX ,10 TO ,100
