Pocket Life ver 0.4 - Conway's life game in your shirt pocket
Features
In this release, you can:
- import life patterns from 'Life' category in Memo Pad.
- go, stop, step forward, step backward, go until, and reset.
- scroll by tapping the edge of the life display area.
- application itself consumes only 9k of your precious Pilot memory.
(but life patterns may eat up...)
and you can't:
- edit life patterns: import *.life files, or type in Memo Pad.
- magnify life patterns: use TealMagnify!
- preserve life patterns when you switch to another application,
including various Launcher applications.
- no online documentation, etc...
