Recently, I have been playing with a BackSpace view that was ported to the  
NeXT by Jeff Adams called MartinView.  It has a basic "Hopalong" fractal  
algorithm that generates some extremely cool patterns...

Wick (Pete Wickersham) and I added mouse control to it;  basically, vertical  
motion forces it to erase whatever is on the screen, and horizontal motion  
forces it to change algorithms....  

It was easy (as is most mods to BackSpace views), and I'm sure there are  
others out there who would have useful contributions, as well.

So, here is the plan; let's open up MartinView (and a couple of other basic  
BackSpace Views that have lots of room for development) to a moderated  
developer environment...

Wick and I will volunteer to moderate for now-- we have an account set up at  
Stone specifically to hold the source archives to do this....

If you are interested in finding out more about this, send mail to:

<gd@stone.com>

with a request for the docs.

To participate, you either need:

NeXTMail (or the ability to generate NeXTMail style attachments)

or

splitmail/joinMail (or some other uuencoded style of transfer that we can  
easily deal with).
