Dear Timur Tabi,

Because logo_plot() predates video_display_bitmap(), and the
implementors of the latter function did not bother to clean up
existing code?

Best regards,

How many Unix hacks does it take to change a light bulb?  Let's  see,
   can you use a shell script for that or does it need a C program?
