Koch Curve Generator 0.2

This program is written in C++, uses QT libraries. I wrote it for two reasons: the first is that i like fractals, the second is that i'd like to learn to write graphics programs for linux. I chose Qt because it appears to be easy and powerful, I used qtarch, a very useful tool to create dialog. I found a way to avoid any trigonometrical function. Hope it's right!

Compiling koch :
progen -n koch -o koch.pro
tmake koch.pro -o Makefile
make

A Koch Curve is a picture complitely described by two elements: a polyline and a level of recursion.
In every line is copyed, rotated and shrinken, the original image. This step is repeated recursively, on every new line drawn.

This program can visualize interactively the picture, allowing the user to find a nice image.

This software is ALPHA release, which means that it could lack of functionalities.
