Slackware 13.37slackware-13.37

Mon Apr 25 13:37:00 UTC 2011
Slackware 13.37 x86_64 stable is released!

Thanks to everyone who pitched in on this release: the Slackware team,
the folks producing upstream code, and linuxquestions.org for providing
a great forum for collaboration and testing.

The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a
dual-sided
32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD.  Please consider supporting the Slackware
project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com.  We're taking
pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription.

As always, thanks to the Slackware community for testing, suggestions,
and feedback.  :-)

Have fun!

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

+xaos: XaoS is a fast portable real-time interactive fractal zoomer.  It
+xaos: displays the Mandelbrot set (and other popular fractals), and allows
+xaos: the user to smoothly zoom in or out of a fractal.  Other features
+xaos: include autopilot mode, palette changing, PNG saving, and fractal

+.TH XaoS 6 "16 Oct 2010" "XaoS" "Demos"
+
+.SH NAME
+xaos - Fast interactive real-time fractal zoomer/morpher
+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+xaos [\fIOPTIONS\fR]
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+XaoS is a fast portable real-time interactive fractal zoomer. It
+displays the Mandelbrot set (among other escape time fractals) and
+allows you to zoom smoothly into the fractal. Various coloring modes are
+provided for both the points inside and outside the selected set. In
+addition, switching between Julia and Mandelbrot fractal types and
+displaying planes is provided. The first version was a poorly written
+Mandelbrot viewer by Thomas later modified by Jan to support high
+frame-rate zooming. Other additions were later made including autopilot
+(for those of you without driver licenses), palette changing, PNG
+saving, and fractal inversion.
+
+.SH OPTIONS
+
+ -delay          number
+                  Delay screen updates (milliseconds)

+# Slackware build script for xaos
+
+# Written by B. Watson (yalhcru@gmail.com)
+
+# A few notes:
+#
+# Package really wants to use its own CFLAGS (even checks for them
+# in the configure script). Let it...
+# 
+# SFFE is the user formula evaluator, which allows users to define their
+# own fractals. On x86 platforms, an assembly-language implementation of
+# SFFE is used. On non-x86 platforms, SFFE requires a library called GSL
+# (GNU Scientific Library, available from SBo).
+# 
+# xaos is still interesting and useful without SFFE support (most users
+# probably don't know/care about the math, so they'll never use the SFFE
+# stuff anyway), so we'll just disable it on non-x86 platforms by default.
+# 
+# If you really want to use it, set USE_GSL=yes in the environment before
+# running this script. There's no need to use GSL on x86 platforms, since
+# the asm code is (or should be) faster, but the option is there if you
+# want to use it anyway.
+# 
+# Multilib users also have the option of building on a 32-bit Slackware system
+# (or in a chroot) and the resulting package will run just fine on 64-bit.
+#
+# If the preceding didn't make any sense, here's the bottom line:
+# 
+# - Regular Slackware (x86) users can just run this script and ignore the junk
+#   above.
+#
+# - Everyone else (Slamd64, Bluewhite64, Slackware64, ???) can just
+#   run this script and probably never notice the missing functionality.
+#
+# - If you're not on x86, but you want the formula evaluator, install GSL
+#   and then run this script with USE_GSL=yes in the environment.
