Mandelbrot Explorer 1.0
-----------------------

Mandelbrot Explorer is a screensaver that zooms in on the Mandelbrot fractal.

To install Mandelbrot Explorer just copy the files MandExpl.scr and Start.bmp to your system directory (usually C:\Windows\System). Select MandExpl as your default screensaver.

To calculate fractals you need a powerfull computer. I recommend at least a Pentium 200 MHz. There aren't any other requirements, Mandelbrot Explorer runs in Win 3.1 and above.

If the screensaver finds an interesting area you can save its coordinates by pressing F5. You can later draw it with Fractal Zoomer 3.0 (It is one of my programs and you can find it on my homepage) and save it as a bmp file. The coordinates are saved in the system diretory.

I hope you like my screensaver, the Mandelbrot fractal is remarkable. For more information see my web page: www.kolumbus.fi/ee.pohjola/index_mikael.html

Updates from earlier versions:
------------------------------
ver 1.1 Much faster calculations som small bug fixed
ver 1.11 You have maybe noticed that it selects areas that aren't interesting, now the bug is fixed.
Some very minor bug fixes.
I have removed the iterations display at the left (it was really there only for my amusement under program development and I didn't intended to leave it there in the final version).
Now the coordinates aren't flipped. (You notice it when you paint the saved image with MiFract 3.0 and the picture is upside down.
ver 1.2 Now you can change the size of the image or have it run full screen.
