It is an ini file. All parameters must belong to the section \[nebula2\]. ### Config parameters -* **width** — The image width. +* **width** – The image width. * **height** – The image heigth. * **jobsize** – The size of a singe job (how many mandelbrot traces should be recorded during one job). * **jobs** – The number of jobs to execute. If the image quality is not good enough, you can later increase this number and rerun nebula2. It will continue where it left, if the statefile is still there. |
