This may be a good idea

I'm sure many people have wanted to paint something in that had many different colors on it's border. PAINT only looks at one color as the border.

RRRRRRRGGGGGGGBBBB
WRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
W0000000000000000R
W0000000000000000R
W0000000000000000R
W0000000000000000R
WRRGGBBBBBBBBBBBBR

Let's say I wanted to PAINT all the 0's to (Y)ellow. I wouldn't be able to do that using PAINT, since the border consists of 4 colors (Red, White, Green and Blue). I think something like this may be useful:

PAINT (5, 5), 14, 4 'this would paint everything yellow until it reaches the border color, 4

NOT PAINT (5, 5), 14, 0 'this would paint only color 0's, and everything else would be the border.


Sorry if I'm posting too many ideas for new features that I think qb64 should have. The main goal is to get it working like Qbasic after all.
