= NEW IMAGE( width, height )

The NEW IMAGE command allows you to define a memory area where you can store an image coming from the screen (with the GET IMAGE command), or from another graphic resource.

The area must be defined by (constant) width and (constant) height, expressed in pixels. The actual size, in terms of bytes of RAM, will depend on the graphics mode selected at the time.

If it is not possible to define an image in that screen mode, a specific error will be issued.

  background = NEW IMAGE(32,32)
