Thanks in advance. Well I don't know about fractint's explicit documentation for the L-system fractals, but I do know that L-systems in general were well explored and developed with the LOGO language. It was an interpeter designed to explore such fractal geometry as hilbert and peano curves. A good book on this type of mathematics is "Turtle Geometry" by Harald Abelson & Andrea DiSessa. It develops from simple examples and leads to very complicated explorations in this novel area of geometry. Fractint's l-systems are faster and their descriptive syntax is more concise but the fundamentals are the same. Noel Giffin
