41
42       --iterations integer
43               How many fractals to generate.  Default 25.
44
45       --points integer
46               How many pixels to draw for each fractal.  Default 10000.
47
48       --delay microseconds
49               How  long we should wait between drawing each fractal.  Default
50               50000, or about 1/20th second.
51
52       --delay2 microseconds
53               How long we should wait before clearing the  screen  when  each
54               run ends.  Default 2000000, or two seconds.
