It gives me an idea.
It should be possible to use built-in image processing
effects on a small image to do the life calculations
for you (at the same time getting more interesting
colours), then stretching the little image to fit
into your window and slapping a grid on it.
The tricky part is to balance the use of image
processing effects in such a way as to produce a
feedback, "life-like".
Such a system will be much faster too, I expect.
See anim-zoom3.r on my reb-site for a demonstration
of effects used in a feedback loop.
I'll probably give it a go myself.
Actually, you could still use a stretched image
to store your cell state, with different colours
representing different states.
