After not touching the code for two years (!!!) I've finally gotten
around to updating my Automata screen saver to work with SlimServer
6.2, and the latest Squeezeboxen.

Automata generates one-dimensional cellular automata on the Squeezebox
display. It works best on SBG or SB2/3, but will also work in text mode
(although two rows of cells are not very exciting ;).

Here are some links to more info on cellular automata:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_automata
http://atlas.wolfram.com/01/01/

New features include:
* updated for Slimserver 6.2
* added support for Squeezebox1 (and SliMP3)
* added support for Squeezebox2 (and Squeezebox 3)
* added option to display rule number while active
* when song changes, new title scrolls across screen while automata
continues to run in background
* updated to use new display hash system instead of "lines"
* optimized algorithm for generating automata
* separated automata generating code from lines() function, since
SlimServer calls lines() at various times on its own

It's available on the Plug-ins page:

Enjoy!
