[Fractdev] *name?

In looking at differences between the float-only version and the head, I'm seeing a number of changes relating to recognizing the '*' at the start of the fractal name. What is the nature of this change and what does it do? Should I prefer the float-only code which doesn't check for names starting with *, or should I prefer the code on the head? -- "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/>
