I've posted to net.sources an Apollo program for viewing the output of
the Mandlebrot set generater Bennett Todd posted a couple weeks ago.

On a color node (DN560/660) with an 8 bit display the pictures look as
good as the Sci-Am illustrations (particularly if h/vpix is around 1K).
You can also get interesting results even on bitmapped displays.

The program has one additional feature:  you can use the mouse to find
the coordinates and "scale" of new areas for exploration.  I found
this very handy in producing nice pictures (see the comments for details).

Have fun.
