All releases tagged Major feature enhancements


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 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 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.
