Point taken. Maybe it could just be a fractal library with documented function calls that anyone could link into independent of operating system. Eg a bit like the JPEG library or the PNG library. This would allow a whole range of options.
That's the goal... otherwise all that code written to compute these fractal types would have to be duplicated in other apps and this code would not get used. Most of the engine is already factored out separate from the UI, its just the occasional sprinkling of "if a key was pressed, shortcut return" that needs to be refactored. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" -- DirectX 9 draft available for download <http://www.xmission.com/~legalize/book/download/index.html> Legalize Adulthood! <http://blogs.xmission.com/legalize/>
