    Summary: Exploring Conway's Game of Life and other cellular automata
    Description: 
    Welcome to Golly, a sophisticated tool for exploring Conway's
    Game of Life and other cellular automata.
    
    - Unbounded universe (limited only by memory).
    - Fast, memory-efficient conventional algorithm.
    - Use hashing to see large patterns evolve at huge time scales.
    - Responsive even while generating or garbage collecting.
    - Reads RLE, Life 1.05/1.06, dblife, and macrocell formats.
    - Can also read common graphic formats: BMP, PNG, GIF, TIFF.
    - Includes a state-of-the-art pattern collection.
    - Supports other Life-like rules and Wolfram's 1D rules.
    - Fast loading of large patterns.
    - Paste in patterns from the clipboard.
    - Unlimited undo/redo.
    - Unbounded zooming out for astronomical patterns.
    - Auto fit option keeps a generating pattern within view.
    - Full screen option (no menu/status/tool/scroll bars).
    - Supports multiple layers, including cloned layers.
    - HTML-based help with integrated Life Lexicon.
    - Scriptable via Perl or Python.
    - User-configurable keyboard shortcuts.
    - Free, open source and cross-platform (Windows, Mac, Linux).
    - We also provide bgolly, a GUI-less version.
