I am looking for software for this IBM PC that runs John Conway's game of Life. I currently have version 0.50 of TurboLife. Is there any better or faster software out there? TurboLife has great rule editing, speed, and file options, but I'd like more versatility in rule definition (ie orthogonal only, perhaps ages of cells) and the ability to perform actions over specific regions. Also, I'd like to be able to wrap the screen around the edges on all four edges, or only two at a time. I'd like to be able to producre more than one random cell per generation. I realize that all of this is not likely to be found in on program, but I'd like to see what else is available. Thanks in advance, respond by mail and I'll post a summary.
