Using TExec to handle keyboard events and TComplex to draw the Mandelbrot set.
Pressing the keys 'z' and 'u' will zoom and unzoom the picture near the mouse location, 'r' will reset to the default view.
Try it (in compiled mode!) with: root mandelbrot.C+
when a mouse event occurs the myexec() function is called (by using AddExec). Depending on the pressed key, the mygenerate() function is called, with the proper arguments. Note the last_x and last_y variables that are used in myexec() to store the last pointer coordinates (px is not a pointer position in kKeyPress events).
