12.2.14. Rocklife
This an implementation of J. H. Conway’s Game of Life (see
for a detailed description).
Rockbox can open files with a configuration description (
.cells
files). Just “play”
such file and the game configuration stored in it will be loaded into this plugin.
A
.cells
file is a text file. A capital ‘O’ marks a live cell, a dot marks a dead cell,
all other characters are ignored. Everything on a line starting with an exclamation sign
(and including it) is a comment and is ignored.
