Ages ago, I wrote a fractal generator in 6510 Assembly language for Commodore 64. It took almost a day to render a single 320*240 Mandelbrot.
The work many have done with fractals is astounding. Long time ago I wrote a fractal program for the atari xl computer, it´s still running! It was written in clean assembler and reasonably fast. It was even capable of doing my own kind of Julia and a basic 3d generation. To display it on my flatscreen I use the input of an an old video recorder and and the EXT connection. I think there is a special adapter for these old 8bit computers, does anyone know more about this subject?
Don't know about that, but I think he's connecting the Atari XL's standard TV video out to a video recorder, then using the video recorder's EXT (external?) connection to connect it to his flatscreen. Here's a forum discussion on how to connect an Atari 800XL to a flatscreen TV: https://atariage.com/forums/topic/235194-trying-to-connect-my-800xl-to-a-fla... If that works, blame the magik power of Google. -- David W. Jones gnome@hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community http://dancingtreefrog.com
