This algorithm draws lines on a gray-scale raster display by dragging a "brush" along the path of the line. The style of the line is determined by the properties of the brush. An anti-aliasing calculation is performed once for the brush itself and thereafter only a trivial additional operation is needed for each pixel through which the brush is dragged to yield an anti-aliased line.
