mdz Mandelbrot Deep Zoom
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
mdz is a Mandelbrot-Set image generator which can use arbitrary precision maths to zoom into those really really deep corners. mdz is a multi-threaded Mandelbrot image generator focused upon exploration into really deep areas of the Mandelbrot-Set, and without fanciful distractions. mdz uses the MPFR maths precision library to zoom really deep!

CHANGES
mdz-0.0.7
-------------------------------------------
Compatible with MPFR versions 2.3 to 3.0
Tested on 64bit Debian Lenny and Gentoo ~amd64.
NEW FEATURES:
* Coordinates system now uses center and
size as a location reference point.
* New coordinates dialog shows and allows
editing of exact coordinates of image.
* MDZ files now store coordinates as cx, cy,
and size and writes xmin, xmax, ymax as
comments in the file.
* Transparent handling of old-style MDZ files
and new style.
* Ability to load an mdz file without loading
the palette data.
* Ability to load only the palette data from
an MDZ file without loading the fractal
settings.
* MDZ files can now contain comments. To make
a comment the line must start with the
# character.
* Ability to change number of render threads
from within the Attributes dialog.
FIXES:
* File filters added to file choosers making
extensions of files more obvious.
* Julia sets now drawn in the middle of the
windows (unless repositioned or zoomed of
course).
* Independent Julia and Mandelbrot coordinates
don't effect each other when zooming.
* Refactoring of settings loading.
* Now defaults to 2 threads instead of 64. While
this is slower, it has the benefit of not
slowing your entire system down.
