Description:
Backfract is an animated wallpaper program for Unix with X windows. It fills your background window with a fractal image, then every 15 minutes it will update the image by zooming in or out. As it zooms in, it uses a simple heuristic to try to stay with "interesting" scenes. WWW: http://www.igoweb.org/~wms/comp/backfract/

For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.
