✨ NAME ✨

clifractgen — the Fractal Generator, bestie 💖

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

clifractgen fsf_file output_file [-h | --help] [-v | --version]
            [-W image_width | --width image_width]
            [-H image_height | --height image_height]
            [-M max_iterations | --maxIterations max_iterations]

okay so it's literally just the program, then fsf_file, then output_file, and then a lil pile of optional flags if u wanna vibe 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

clifractgen — aka FractGen — is a simple Qt-based fractal generator program for Mandelbrot fractals 🌀✨

The image size is only limited by virtual memory, so like... go big or go home, no cap. It is possible to zoom into images 🧚 Image parameters can be saved in XML files and loaded from XML files. Calculated images can be exported as PNG files 🎀

The intention of this program is to generate graphics to be post-processed by other image tools, e.g. in order to generate nice screen backgrounds or book covers 👑 fr fr, that's the whole point.

This is the command-line version of FractGen 🌟 This program can be used to calculate files created by FractGen on machines without a GUI, e.g. to produce high-resolution images on a powerful server 🖥️🔥 main character energy tbh.

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

The following argument may be provided:

  • -h | --help — show arguments help and exit 🙈
  • -v | --version — show version and exit ⭐

🍓 EXAMPLES 🍓

clifractgen -h
clifractgen -v
clifractgen fractgen.fsf fractgen-uhd.png -W 3840 -H 2160 -M 10000
clifractgen alpha05.fsf alpha05.png --width 3840 --height 2160
        --max-iterations 10000
clifractgen beta07.fsf beta07-A3.png -W21000 -H14850 -M10000

like... look at that last one, -W21000 -H14850 -M10000, she's not playing around 😭💀 iconic behaviour honestly.
