rLifeSrc can help you, but a bit slow due to being online.

If I have enough time, I would write a hybrid search program on Scratch called SLS (ScratchLifeSrc).

If so, I decide to upload the html online (maybe into a document in Google Docs or into a website).

Played with Docs then I found no way to embed a html. I can share as gz through.

Tom Rokicki mentioned that Conway's Game of Life can be computed in 19 Boolean operations (amortized)

#define ADVANCE_TILE_64(a, b, tmp, dst) {              \\
    uint64_cu al = ROTL64(a, 1);                       \\
    uint64_cu ar = ROTR64(a, 1);                       \\
    uint64_cu xor2 = al ^ ar;                          \\
    (dst)[threadIdx.x] = xor2 ^ a;                     \\
    __syncthreads();                                   \\
    uint64_cu uda = (dst)[u] & (dst)[d];               \\
    uint64_cu udx = (dst)[u] ^ (dst)[d];               \\
    uint64_cu sv = (xor2 & udx) | uda;                 \\
    uint64_cu pt8 = xor2 ^ udx;                        \\
    uint64_cu sh = al & ar;                            \\
    (tmp)[threadIdx.x] = sh | (a & xor2);              \\
    __syncthreads();                                   \\
    uint64_cu pt4 = ((tmp)[u] ^ (tmp)[d]) ^ (sh ^ sv); \\
    uint64_cu xc3 = ((tmp)[u] | (tmp)[d]) ^ (sh | sv); \\
    b = pt4 & xc3 & (pt8 | a);                         \\

It's a lot easier to solve this kind of thing if you quote your actual .table file text. Otherwise we're just guessing about what exactly you did, and often our assumptions will be different from your assumptions.

One way to read your statement that you "removed every text", for example, would be that you took out the specifications of number of states and neighborhood. If you read the ReadRuleTable.py code in the glife module, you can see that it expects to read and return that information.

Conversely, you might have left in the @TABLE line. The code wouldn't expect that to be there, so it might try to read it as a transition, which might fail (not sure). It would be helpful if your description of what's going wrong could be a lot more specific than just "still doesn't work".
