#What is MUI?
MUI is the Magic User Interface shareware distribution. It contains a
library and a group of images for constructing GUI's. A lot of shareware
out of Germany is being program using MUI.
The Fractint Amiga port has a MUI interface. A medium size window
appears on the Workbench with a number of gadgets to control Fractint. I
have played with fractint on the PC and did not like the interface. The
Amiga version is much nicer to use. Another MUI application I have looked
at is WinGnuPlot, a version of GnuPlot with an MUI interface. Also to new
beta version on SpecialHost from the PasTeX distribution and a program I
just downloaded called DFA (a nice address manager) have MUI interfaces.
On Amiga fractint, I have done some speed comparisons with other
Mandelbrot generators. For the Mandelbrot set itself, fractint is faster
than MandelPaug, but not as fast as the demo version of Mand2000. I like
fractint because of wide variety of fractal types. I am attending graduate
school in mathematics and am developing an interest in non-linear
dynamics, chaos, fractal and complexity. One thing I wish fractint could
do is animations and I wish it had an ARexx interface.
