I assume it has been tested on all of the previous parameter files, which made use of the older version, to ensure that this will indeed work correctly as stated??
Modifications of older versions and then using the same name have always troubled me. One never knows how XFractInt (in Linux environments) will handle this, when it is already having difficulties with past FOTD postings. [see recent FractDev discussions]
Paul: All the old parameter files that I tested with the new version of the formula worked perfectly. But I could not try all the old files, since there are too many of them. Maybe I'll give the new version a new name and avoid the possibility of confusion. (If this doesn't simply add to the confusion, that is.) JIM
