Transitions

Someone shared a video on Discord the other day showcasing some screen transitions, and I told them that I'd thought RhoSigma or Terry Ritchie had already did a whole series of those type things.  Digging through my old archives, however, I couldn't seem to find any of them.  Either I never saved a copy, or else I've misplaced what I saved, but at the end of the day, I didn't have any, so I took a few moments to write a few simple ones of my own.

FadeTo, Transition, Circle, Square -- all work with either color values or screen handles, so they're pretty flexible like that, and all are set so you can specify how long it takes to complete the swap from one screen to the next.

FadeTo fades one screen/color into focus over time.
Transition moves one screen left/right/up/down, while the second screen pushes it out of the way.
Circle uses either colored circles, or colored circle fragments of the second screen, to overwrite the first one.
Squares works similar to circle, except it uses square/rectangle segments of the second screen to overwrite the first one.

I'll probably add some more effects to these over time, but this seems like a nice starter package for folks to play around with.  Come up with a couple of your own, and we'll package them all together into a nice library format that anyone could make use of it they wanted to.

DUDE! This is awesome @SMcNeill!

Thank you for this!
