Excellent idea! I would still like a separate slow-zoom mode, but this is great. |

Okay, so I've added another option called While |

Thank you for making this better 😄 |

Zooming now uses a logarithmic scale, and the events for zooming in/out gravitate to powers of 2, such as 50%, 100%, 200%, etc. The option `--zoom-step` has been changed to represent the number of zoom steps between powers of 2, with the default being 3 steps.
While `--zoom-steps` is the number of button or key presses between powers of 2, `--zoom-rate` represents the number of pixels between powers of 2 that the user clicks and drags between, so if you added the arg `--zoom-rate=1024`, it would result in a very slow zoom mode. The default is 128 pixels.

Zoom-mode now zooms on a logarithmic scale, and the events for zooming in/out gravitate to powers of 2, such as 50%, 100%, 200%, etc.
The option
--zoom-stephas been changed to represent the number of zoom steps between powers of 2, with the default being 3 steps.The number of zoom steps is optional, while the rate of zoom-mode uses a constant rate that is not affected by zoom steps.
Edit: You can also step between powers other than 2. For example, if you want 5 steps between powers of 3, you would enter the raw value of
ln(2) / ln(3) * 5which results in:--zoom-step=3.154648768
