in thread Mandelbrot set

FYI I ran it in Windows (with no ANSI support) and it was garbled. I ran it in cygwin and - gorgeous!

I personally believe it was not "garbled", simply your terminal didn't interpret ANSI escapes. I used Win32::Console::ANSI, and it runs like a charm.

    yes. exactly. I spent about 3 minutes trying to turn on Ansi support and then went to cygwin


    I humbly seek wisdom.

      I personally believe that it's just as easy as

      C:\temp>perl -MWin32::Console::ANSI mandel.pl

        Duh! thanks. I was struggling to get cmd.exe to add ansi support (remember config.sys from decades ago?) instead of getting Perl to add it. How silly of me.
