Cellular Automata Animator v1.0, also known as DrLife is  a 1d and 2d 
cellular automata engine to run C.A. patterns as large as 1000x1000 cells. 
Patterns for C.A.'s can be in Life1.05, run length encoded (RLE), or ascii 
formats. Patterns can be modified before being run, and can be selected 
from the following sources: A file, a pattern stored as a string of 0 & 
1's, or a pattern entered from the keyboard. While running the pattern, you 
can pause and single-step the execution. Large patterns greater than 62,000 
cells can be viewed in sections which are selectable by marquee mouse 
marking the pattern graphic.

All Life-like rules,and many non-life like rules can be run. Binary 1d 
rules   with radius 1 and 2 are supported. Cell neighborhoods of 8, 9, 4 
and 5 cells are built into the program. Other cell neighborhoods can be 
defined in a config file.

A number of public patterns are included.
Source code for use with DrDialog is included.
