Dr Retro, I presume?

OK, so you're probably getting bored of mandelbrots by now. Sorry. But there have been more improvements to DALIS, mainly in the area of string handling; namely there is some. I can now assign string variables and do string comparisons and concatenations. This means that I can output some pretty html with colour and everything :-) Just take a look that this bad boy:

DALIS can do colour

How very retro. But it is like DALIS has jumped from the world of the ASCII character terminals of the 70s to the microcomputers of the 80s. OK, in case you're interested I'm mapping a 9 bit colour palette to the equivalent html colour values. But I'll try not to post any more mandelbrot images for a while, honest.
