I have been working on this Mandlebrot for some months and have
finally decided to give it away in the public domain. I hope you
like it.
It can only be compiled with Manx Aztec C, because some of the
program is in Manx 68000 assembler format. The Mandelbrot picture
generators are in assembly for speed.
The program uses contour map making techniques that allow you
direct control over coloration of your Mandelbrot pictures. Once
you've generated a picture, you can recolor again in seconds.
MandelVroom has a number of preset pictures that are examples
of the kind of pretty pictures you can make.
MandelVroom works best with more than 512K of ram, but I've tried
to make some provisions for those of you without extra ram.
The file named MandeVroom.doc contains a description of MandelVroom
and how to use it. I recommend reading it.
For those of you who want or need to rebuild MandelVroom, good luck.
MandelVroom's code is located in three directories. The MandleVroom
directory contains most of MandelVroom's code.
The GetFile directory contains Charlie Heath's file name regiester
from Fish Disk 41. It also contains some files with diff's in them.
Charlie's file name requester doesn't work to well in custom screens
without them.
You will need to combine Charlies code with the diff's to produce the
code I use. You will then need to perform a make in the GetFile
directory.
The IFF directory needs to contain a bunch of sources from the
Amiga Developers IFF disk (Fish Disk 64). See the 'readme' in the
IFF directory for information on the files required.
Sorry you have to run all over to get the stuff to rebuild this code,
but I don't want to redistribute the IFF sources.
Good luck with the program. I hope you enjoy it.
