Advice for Reader's of
Fractals, Visualization and J, 2nd edition
using J5.01

A number of J features have changed in J5.01 which
require minor or substantial changes to the scripts
and labs associated with the book. When minor
changes were made, the names remained the same, when 
more siginificant changes were made, the name was
changed. The script and image files required for the
text under J501 are contained in fvj2b.zip.

There are five labs which should be placed into
the user/labs directory.

Most of the images created in the text can be
more or equally conveniently read or written
using tools from the image 3 addon
(available from Jsoftware)

In particular, to read an 8-bit paletted image file

'p b'=:readbmp8 'image.bmp'     (raster5)
'p b'=:pal_read_bmp 'image.bmp' (image3)
(p;b) write_image 'image.bmp    (image3)

However, similar statements under image3 use
png's which are typically much smaller files

'p b'=:pal_read_png 'image.png' (image3)
(p;b) write_image 'image.png    (image3)

Also, the image3 addon has facilties for creating
*.mov animations from J without using other tools.
