This PocketPC application can calculate pictures of 8 Mandelbrot/Julia type complex fractals on your PDA. Easily zoom into selected areas of the fractal.

Main features:

- Support for 8 complex fractal types (known from the great PC program called Fractint):

* Barnsley J1

* Barnsley M1

* Julia

* Julia4

* Mandelbrot

* Manowar

* Manowar J

* Spider

- Support for three types of arithmetic precision:

* Fixed point 32 bit: fully optimized StrongARM assembly code; very fast, limited zooming

* Fixed point 64 bit: optimized C-code accelerated by StrongARM assembly code; zooming capabilities similar to floating point but significantly faster

* Floating point: optimized C-code; deep zooming, slow calculations

- Context-sensitive help, accessible through the Start Menu.

- Save your favorite pictures for future recalculation, in a very compact file format called MBF. (Several sample MBF files included.)

- Palettes (up to 256 colors) can be loaded from file. Palette files (MPF file format) come in two flavors:

* Binary format (native); allows for compact file size

* ASCII text format (user defined); allows users to easily create their own custom palette files. A palette save option allows these user defined palettes to be saved into the native binary format

- Color cycling and 3D relief drawing effects.

- Slideshow option (view your file history as a slideshow).

- Power saving: automatically turns of the screen during calculations if the battery power is low.

- Many new options.

- It's still freeware! :-)

Update Description:

One user reported problems on the Toshiba e740. This was caused by an error in the GAPI driver on this device. The update includes a workaround for this issue, and thus also works on the e740.
