All releases of GtkLife
Release Notes: Several enhancements have been made to the GtkLife GUI, and Gtk+ 2 support has been greatly improved. GtkLife can now be installed using the standard ./configure, make, make install combination instead of editing the Makefile.
Release Notes: GTK+ 2 can now be used. GTK+ 1.2 remains the default and will continue to be supported. Several new features were added and bugfixes were made.
Release Notes: This release fixes a potential crash when saving patterns.
Release Notes: This is primarily a bugfix release, with few user-visible changes.
Release Notes: This release has many user-visible improvements. Among the more significant new features are an enlarged world size (1 million x 1 million cells), a "Find Active Cells" command to locate regions where cells are alive and changing, handling of multiple file formats (Life 1.05 and 1.06, XLife, RLE), and the addition of a second pattern collection.
Release Notes: This release featured many improvements to functionality, the user interface, and documentation. The main window now has a status bar displaying useful bits of information as well as messages to the user. Run->Jump was added to jump quickly to a particular generation (without updating the display in between), and View->Goto was added to directly set the viewport coordinates. The help system was completely reworked and now includes documentation of all menu items and configuration options.
Release Notes: This release fixes a logic bug in the main algorithm, which can cause evolution mistakes under some rare circumstances. It also improves the documentation, adding detailed notes on the Life Pattern Archive, available from the Help menu.
Release Notes: A number of significant bugfixes and usability enhancements were made, mostly related to drawing and cut-and-paste. Block-copying is now much more reliable, even when executed on a running pattern. Drawing cells is smoother, and the "dotted line" effect if you drag the mouse quickly was fixed. The display now scrolls with you if you go off the edge while selecting a region or drawing cells. The Life algorithm itself was also improved: patterns with large numbers of oscillators run much faster.
Release Notes: This release features better editing capabilities for the Life grid: you can now select blocks of cells and use all the standard cut-and-paste commands. It also includes a new full-screen mode (for EWMH-compliant window managers), as well as various bugfixes and usability enhancements.
Release Notes: This release contains various usability enhancements, including a more flexible Preferences dialog. Code documentation has also been improved. GtkLife is now well-tested and is being moved up to "stable" status.
