    NAME
	DrawEllipse -- Draw an ellipse centered at cx,cy with vertical
	   and horizontal radii of a,b respectively.

    SYNOPSIS
	DrawEllipse( rp, cx, cy, a, b )
		     a1  d0  d1  d2 d3

	void DrawEllipse( struct RastPort *, SHORT, SHORT, SHORT, SHORT);

    FUNCTION
       Creates an elliptical outline within the rectangular region
	specified by the parameters, using the current foreground pen color.

    INPUTS
	rp - pointer to the RastPort into which the ellipse will be drawn.
	cx - x coordinate of the centerpoint relative to the rastport.
	cy - y coordinate of the centerpoint relative to the rastport.
	a - the horizontal radius of the ellipse (note: a must be > 0)
	b - the vertical radius of the ellipse (note: b must be > 0)
