In Fedora 29, compiling Golly 3.2 and then running it results in a blank where the matrix of cells should normally be. See https://ibb.co/xmCYh5V . I compiled with CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS set to “-fPIC” and with and with “./configure --with-wx-config=wx-config-2.0” (otherwise compilation fails). Where s...

I made this script to generate the images I am about to place in the article non-totalistic Life-like cellular automaton of the wiki. It is not written with the intent to be of general purpose or a masterpiece of programming, but instead as a pragmatic tool that is more practical than generating the...

Should I write "Von Neumann neighborhood cellular automata" (without hyphens), "Von Neumann-neighborhood cellular automata" (with hyphen*) or "Von Neumann–neighborhood cellular automata" (with em dash)? Please explain the rationale. Thanks. *: Strictly speaking, that is an hyphen-minus. Unicode has ...

Thanks.

Ok. If understand correctly then it was broken but it is now fixed.

Could not set current working directory (error 2: No such file or directory) The golly executable has to be in the same directory as the Help/Patterns/Rules/Scripts folders. Apparently that is not enough: First I used configure, then I ran "make" and then I copied the executable file to the root of...

What do you mean?

I have downloaded the package called "WWE, WWE2, WWEJ and WWEJ2" several days ago before your post from this link without problems.

I have already read "docs/Build.html". Trying to build with the plain Makefile (i.e.: not the configure method) gives even more obscure errors. Is this the proper place to contact Golly developers about these problems? P.S: Linux is a kernel . What I use is Debian, a distribution of the GNU/Linux op...

I am trying to build the latest Golly version in git (currently commit 86b66e2). I get the following error: $ make -j2 golly g++ -DGOLLYDIR="/home/mario/install/golly/share/golly" -Wall -fno-strict-aliasing -g -O2 -O2 -Wl,--as-needed -o golly golly-wxalgos.o golly-wxcontrol.o golly-wxedit.o golly-wx...

Where is the source code for this version?

Hello. I want to create a page in the wiki about the analogues of GOL but with von Neumann neighborhood, summarizing known results about them. Can you please enable editing for me? My username is "marioxcc" in the wiki.
