# mandelplot
### Generate mandelbrot set with specified dimensions, a couple of palettes included !
## Usage
mandelplot [OPTIONS]
OPTIONS:
- `-d, --image_dimensions <image_dimensions>` => Set image dimensions (WIDTHxHEIGHT) [default: 7680x4320]
- `-h, --help` => Print help information
- `-i, --max_iter <max_iter>` => Specify maximum amount of iterations to decide whether the point escapes to infinity or not [default: 1000]
- `-n, --image_name <image_name>` => Set output image filename [default: mandelbrot]
- `-p, --palette <palette>` => Specify bulb color (light, dark) [default: light]
- `-V, --version` => Print version information
- `-z --m_set_dimensions <m_set_dimensions>` => Set real and imaginary constraints (real_start,imaginary_startxreal_end,imaginary_end) [default: -2.5,-2.0x1.5,2.0]

- ~~generate image in parallel~~
- ~~zooming in~~
