Subject: FriezingWorkz 1.0 - investigate frieze groups, or just make nice
patterns

FriezingWorks is a freeware HyperCard stack which creates friezes
from what you draw using the seven frieze groups. It has two
purposes. For those interested in transformation geometry, it can be
used to demonstrate and/or explore the seven frieze groups. For
people who aren't so mathematically minded, FriezingWorkz can simply
be used to make nice frieze patterns for use in borders or other
artwork. All you have to do is draw a base pattern and choose which
frieze group you'd like to use for the frieze - FriezingWorkz adds
extra black pixels to make sure the pattern has the required
symmetries, and then makes the frieze.
