This is just some more Apple II Xdraw (firmware vector drawing). In this case I wanted to draw short lines, the value for the shapetable was $04 $00. I tried various ways to point to this value in a short manner, but even putting it at address $0101 (an easy pointer to load into X/Y/A) didn't help with the size. Eventually I found $0400 in ROM and point to that instead. I really liked the effect but despite all the effort was not able to get it down to the 16-byte category. If you're lucky you can remove the HPOSN call to save 3 bytes, but that depends on random RAM contents at boot. So anyway, in agony after weeks I just kept it at 17 bytes and submitted it as a 32-byte demo.
