From the author's description:
"LifeMaker is a cellular automata program of color Macs.  The universe 
starts at some initial state and evolves according to a simple local 
rule. ConwayUs Game of Life is by far the best known CA. LifeMaker 
includes ConwayUs Life along with sixteen other rules.  Unlike most 
Life programs LifeMaker uses color, allows you to change the size of 
the 'universe', and lets you create your own rules."


The program has great flexibility in modifying the pattern in progress --
transformations can be selected from the meny and there is even a tool
box for additional drawing, erasing, selecting and painting.  New rules can
be written in Pascal-like code.

The documentation is very helpful, even including sections on the basics of
cellular automata nd another on applications.  It concludes with an 
annotated bibliography.

The program will run on monochrome systems, but it is best with color.
It runs on system 6.07 or greater, and it is 32-bit clean.  LifeMaker
 requires 32 Bit QuickDraw 1.1 or above.
