Life
#13
Using the suggestions from the replies, here is the latest version:

3 patterns from the Life wiki have been added

And...I added a line drawing option, but due to my low skill level it's kind of a problem.   I tried using 'right click' to exit but I don't fully understand how to apply or capture a right mouse click to get out of a loop.   So i changed it to use the ENTER key.   Anyway I'd like to know how to just use the mouse and right click, if anyone can suggest a solution.   Cheers.
