The article explains blitting using masks. While this technique was used with planar devices, when using a chunky framebuffer is much more common to just flag a color (usually 0) as transparent, and only copy pixels different from that color. --Pezezin11:13, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The article equates "BLIT" with "BitBLT" which is not necessarily correct. I believe the term "BLIT" actually stands for "Block Image Transfer" (and this is mentioned in the article on Blitter). R1chardJ0n3s04:58, 19 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Nope. And it's irrelevant anyway. 'Blt' stands for 'BLock Transfer'. And 'Bit BLT' stands for 'bit block transfer'. Mostly because that's exactly what it does. Transfers a block of bits. There are no images associated with this. The masking can and is used for any general bit masking/moving op - not just computer displays and 'sprites'. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.217.209.23 (talk) 16:58, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
