The orbits.par file has some examples of what the new passes=o feature can do.

I hope that both of these end up on the screen for sound parameters and that "passes=o" has something going for it beyond "showorbit=yes". The orbitinterval, if it skips some of the orbits, would add a feature that is in a program for sound from fractals that some guy from RoadRunner-Hawaii mentioned recently, but I suspect that it actually specifies how many orbits to keep on the screen at once. Understanding this code might bring you to a feature I wanted in orbits that can be connected with any escape-time fractal to make queerly arcade-like sounds on a 486. It is perhaps something that can be done with /dev/dsp or sox. _______ } Fireworks { ; Anybody got a better way to see only the orbits? ; Symmetry assertion doesn't work at this angle. ; Fractint Version 2003 Patchlevel 1 reset=2003 type=formula formulafile=fire.par formulaname=mandelbroh function=ident/conj passes=t center-mag=-0.455826/0/0.6835187/1.181/90/3.88578058618804789e-016 params=-2/16 float=y maxiter=255 inside=255 proximity=-0.025 outside=fmod symmetry=xaxis periodicity=0 showorbit=yes colors=@altern.map } MandelBroh { z=fn1(pixel), c=fn2(pixel): z=z^real(P1) +c |z| <= imag(P1) }
