Subject: [ANN] Grankos: Graphical 1D CA generator

Hello, here's another 1D Cellular Automata visualizer a la Wolfram. This
one generates pretty graphics using imlib2-ruby and is fairly
configurable. The home page shows some nice examples:

http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~leon/ruby/grankos/

The automata have no boundary conditions and computation can be sslow.

I'm planning to create similar generators for other kinds of automata
from Wolfram's "A New Kind of Science." They will be appended to Grankos
as they come along. The emphasis will be on visualization rather than
interactivity, hence there won't be a GUI (but anyone can easily add
one). Feedback would be appreciated.

Cheers,
