RUM Routines (By Function)

Function Categories

Initialization Routines	'RASTER' / Message Drawing Routines

Positioning / Intensity / Drawing Overhead Routines	Controller / Joystick Routines

'DIFFY' Style Drawing Routines	Rotate Routines

'DUFFY' Style Drawing Routines	Math Routines

'DOT' Drawing Routines	Miscellaneous Routines

'PACKET' Drawing Routines	Sound-related Routines

NOTE: To be more consistent with how I code (and making them easier to remember), I renamed some of the RUM routines that I used in my games (via EQUs). If I don't show a different label, then I used the same label as defined by the RUM.
