CAGL (Cellular Automata openGL) visulization package. i mostly wrote this to get a better understanding of cellular automata. i posted the program on sourceforge in case anyone else wanted to use cagl to play around with some simple cellular automata themselves.
CAGL uses a command line interface to play around with the cellular automata that you are viewing. this includes pattern placement, viewing the time series, loading new cellular automata etc. i'll try and get better documentation as time goes on so that the interface will not be so esoteric.

Features

- 1, 2, and 3 dimensional cellular automata
- time series display
- dfa filters
- pattern placement

Background

most of the cellular automata programs that i have seen on the internet are either written in java, or are limited to one or two dimensional cellular automata (and even those seem to be limited to game of life like outer totalistic functions). this was my major reason for writing this program. i wanted something that i could (relatively) easily visualize multi-dimensional cellular automta, and add functionality too.
