* Saves/loads options now.
* Saves current image on exit and reloads it the next time.
* Progressive draw added.

General information
-------------------
This program creates some good looking pictures, one could call
abstract art. Control is interactive, the program will create
a main picture and 8 variations, the user can then select a picture
to continue with (make new variations from), mix two pictures
or let the program create an entire new picture (so there is no
"please-enter-100-values-to-create-the-picture-from" requester ;).
Pictures can be saved as 24bit JPEGs and PNGs (up to
16384 x 16384 pix in size).



More requirements
-----------------
A faster CPU is recomended (68030) and a FPU helps too, but is not
required.
