Summary: Notification Manager support, nice touch Message-ID: <5838@phoenix.Princeton.EDU> Date: 27 Jan 89 01:37:23 GMT Reply-To: djlinse@phoenix.Princeton.EDU (Dennis Linse) Distribution: na Organization: Princeton University, NJ Lines: 22 References: I thought I would throw out a 'Nice Job!' to Dave Platt for the MandelZot 1.4.1 program that came down the comp.binaries.mac pipeline recently. For those who have color capabilities, you can make some really nice pictures of the Mandelbrot set. Even without color it may be good, but color is really nice. Special thanks for adding the notification manager and closing windows in the background feature. When switched out under Multifinder, MandelZot closes all of its windows (unless instructed otherwise) and continues calculating. When it is finished, it uses the notification manager to alert the user. When you switch back, you have the completed picture waiting for you. On a side note: The samples that came in the third posting would not unstuff for me. They unbinhexed fine, but then gave an error on unstuffing. Was this a widespread occurrence?
