Several weeks ago I mailed Ben Haller's Mandelbrot 2.7 to the moderator of
comp.binaries.mac.  It is just now appearing on the net, but there are a
lot of reports that the files have been garbled.  Not being much of a unix
expert, I don't know what happened.  I don't even understand why my
original 4-part Hqx grew into 6 parts.

Rather than trying to figure out a patch to what has already been posted,
I will resubmit all of Mandelbrot to comp.binaries.mac.  I have tested my
uploads by downloading them from my rn host - they converted just fine.
Let's hope the posting works this time.

I have also sent Mandelbrot to info-mac@sumex.stanford.edu, so folks with
ftp access can look for it there.  Please do NOT send me requests for
Mandelbrot via e-mail (I don't have enough memory in my rnuser account to
archive the files).

Note that Mandelbrot requires an 8 bit/pixel display (color or grayscale).
It will not work on a Plus or SE.  But if you have a Mac II, you will
definitely want to try this program: the displays are beautiful.  Overall,
it is a much slicker item than the MandelZot program which recently
appeared on info-mac.  Bob Woodhead (co-author of Wizardry, and another
Ithacan) has also written a very nice Mandelbrot program for the Mac II.
But I don't know the distribution status of that software.
