    Ok. Here's a clue. Count the columns. Then figure out how many divisions there are in each. Another clue is that you might see the points of a sideways parabola. I created the original design in 2001. It can be perfectly represented in a bitmap of 256 pixels square.

    All software has a learning curve usually proportional to its capabilities and unique features. Pointing with a mouse is in no way easier than tapping a key.

    If you read it left to right, top to bottom, it is every value from 00 to ff (0 to 255) in binary, in order.

    It's called
    00...ff

    Here! Check this out. It's an ild file.

    Very well done. I started to add "from 2 to the 0 to 2 to the 8".

    BINGO!!!

    (Actually 2^0 to 2^7 is the value of each bit from right to left.)
