mdz Mandelbrot Deep Zoom

Thank you, it works fine now.

That is, the old files with comma can't even be loaded from the GUI now. But that is of course not a problem. I'll definitely be using this program a lot.
May I have some docs for the Palette Randomization function? I don't really understand what the different settings do.

I wish the palette randomizer had even more functionality! It's really nice to play with. Started me thinking what tools others use to design their palettes. The option to overlay the pattern only at the Nth stripe of the palette is cool. Makes it possible to combine very slow pulsating movement (which more seems like the color of the lighting is changing) with very fast (more local) small stripes. No easy way to make videos, which is a shame. But it really does add something to my Mandelbrot experience.

New version is 0.1.1 by the way. Found on https://github.com/jwm-art-net/MDZ and/or http://jwm-art.net/mdz/

@youhn you might be interested in pauldelbrots multi wave coloring method
although it is an algorithm which is not implemented by most programms, at least for ultrafractal there exists an implementation

when coloring mandelbrots the frequency often gets far to high and colors become repeated in the visible range, with the method
from pauldel new colors appear all the time ( if choosen correct params )

you can think of it as prime number scaled sine waves that become joined together to form the final color, based on the distance
estimation
