A version of FRACTINT, and the addition of FDESIGN, an IFS fractal generation program, which allows the user to build fractal objects that mimic nature, including trees, water and more. This package enables the user to manipulate, edit, alter and store these intricate patterns.
I really loved this book when it came out, and wish the authors would get together to update both the material in the book and the software that came with it to run on 'modern' computing equipment, (this was written when DOS was still king!) The book provided a really good, hands-on approach to fractal theory. It is a little light on application, but wasn't meant to have any of that, so I can forgive and forget. Moving down through to the borders of a Mandlebrot or Julia set in 16bit colour was amazing, and I would love to see what it would look like in the 16 million + colours available on computers today!
