Automaton - UserLibrary to create and draw a Cellular Automaton

This UserLibrary allows you to easily create a Cellular Automaton and draw it on any surface that supports StartDrawing().

Features

Save, load and reload Automatons
Fast in-memory handling of all actions
Rule and fieldtype based "movement"/actions

Cool, I like it...

I face a problem when I try to compile the examples...

#Automaton_All and #Automaton_Cross -> constants not found....

Did you install the .res into the Residents folder and restarted your compiler?

Will it work under Linux?

Dunno if Tailbite UserLibraries work under Linux. Give it a try.

Update: Added help files.
