NAME
       gnofract4d - a GUI fractal generator/explorer

SYNOPSIS
       gnofract4d

DESCRIPTION
       gnofract4d is a free, open source program which allows anyone to create
       beautiful images called fractals. The images are automatically created
       by the computer based on mathematical principles. These include the
       Mandelbrot and Julia sets and many more. You don't need to do any math:
       you can explore a universe of images just using a mouse.

USAGE
       gnofract4d [OPTIONS]

OPTIONS
       To generate an image non-interactively, use:

       -i --width N
              Make image N pixels wide

       -j --height N
              Make image N pixels tall

       -P --path P
              Add P to the formula search path

       -f --formula F#func

          --inner F#func
              Use coloring algorithm 'func' from file F

          --outer F#func
              Use coloring algorithm 'func' from file F

          --transforms F#func1,F2#func2
              Apply transforms 'func1' and 'func2'

       -m --maxiter N
              Use N as maximum number of iterations

          --map FILE
              Load map file FILE

       Positional Parameters:

          --xcenter N

          --ycenter N

          --zcenter N
