Re: Non-quadratic form of whiteout

Consider the letter O, with 'outline #'(5 . 0). It’s easy to see that the 
thickness on top (at the "N" compass point) is 5 units, and the thickness on 
the right (at the "E" compass point). But we need to determine the thickness at 
the "NW" (45º) compass point — that requires interpolation between 5 and 0, 
right?

Cheers,
Kieren.
