 1.11 Orbits Window

  The <O> key turns on the Orbit mode.  In this mode a cursor appears over
  the fractal. A window appears showing the orbit used in the calculation
  of the color at the point where the cursor is. Move the cursor around
  the fractal using the arrow keys or the mouse and watch the orbits
  change. Try entering the Orbits mode with View Windows (<V>) turned on.
  The following keys take effect in Orbits mode.
  <c>         Circle toggle - makes little circles with radii inversely
              proportional to the iteration. Press <c> again to toggle
              back to point-by-point display of orbits.
  <l>         Line toggle - connects orbits with lines (can use with <c>)
  <n>         Numbers toggle - shows complex coordinates & color number of
              the cursor on the screen. Press <n> again to turn off numbers.
  <p>         Enter pixel coordinates directly
  <h>         Hide fractal toggle. Works only if View Windows is turned on
              and set for a small window (such as the default size.) Hides the
              fractal, allowing the orbit to take up the whole screen. Press
              <h> again to uncover the fractal.
  <s>         Saves the fractal, cursor, orbits, and numbers as they
              appear on the screen.
