So, you are one of those few who reply to me. Thanks a lot! Remember that
it was you (and a few others) who make me uploads Infiltrator 1990 and
Mandelbrot (Double Hires).

I actually like Turbo Mandelbrot interface. My original Mandebrot programs 
have no interface at all. I would actually like somebody to hack the program 
and add in the nice interface similar to Turbo Mandelbrot. It can be done,
since Turbo Mandelbrot interface portion is written in Applesoft.

If someone can persuade Alan Bird to let freeware programmers upload 
Compiler.System without paying him $50, there are at least 10 more softwares
I think many 8 bit users will be surprise to see! Not only fractals, not
only normal programs, but a complete window routines (KeyWin, which includes 
menu, dialogs, mouse support, etc) for Applesoft programmers, and a range of 
applications that uses the KeyWin window environment.

Cooled down. Remember, if there are more people like you, there will be
more software available.
