Function 'BCX_Pie'

[RMeyer]

Hello Mr BCX,

after research in the BCX forum or source code BCX does not contain (unintentionally ?) an equivalent for the GDI function 'Pie'.
My variant of 'bc.bas' contains the hopefully correctly implemented function 'BCX_Pie'.
Could you add the function in the next BCX update?

Hello Richard,

Thank you for the BCX_PIE function and for the care you gave incorporating it into BCX. 

Excellent job!  We have gone far too long without our pie!

BCX_PIE  will be included in the forthcoming version 8.0.1.

The attached screenshot uses the BCX_ARC example from BCX Help and simply replaces BCX_ARC with BCX_PIE.

This showed me the implementation works and it shows some differences between the two functions.
