------
- ./mandelbrot-gen <size> <max_iterations> <power> [threads] > output.pgm
+ ./mandelbrot-gen -c size -i max_iterations -e exponent \
+ [-c cores] [-t thread_multiplier]
+ [-N cluster-id -T cluster-total] > output.pgm
Also check out the other algorithms like `tricorn-gen` and `burning-ship-gen`.
You might then want to consider using a tool such as ImageMagick to then convert the (large) output file into something more sane like a PNG.
