Congratulations to the FRACTINT team on a SUPER product!! Version 14 is incredibly well done! Our site missed two of the binary parts, but we did receive all of the source. I downloaded it and fired up TC++ to build it. Compared with previous releases, this time was a snap! The .PRJ file had to be updated for the correct directories (D:\TC on my sys), but otherwise worked fine. The only problems were in FRACTALS.C: 1. duplicate definitions of tw typedefs (I simply deleted them) 2. parameter mismatch with calls to TryFloatFractal(), which I fixed by changing the parameter to: int (*whatever) instead of: void (*whatever) 3. FRACTALS.C is just too darned big!! TC & TCC both run out of memory trying to compile this beast. So I broke it up into two separate files, adding lots of 'extern' declarations to get the second part to compile ok. Downright trivial! Fast too! I really like the new drawing algorithms, which rough out the whole picture first, and then fill in the details on subsequent passes. This makes for very fast zooming. Thanks again for giving us such a GREAT(!!) fractal viewer!! -- ___Mark S.
