It's such a useful command (especially on the wiki) that it probably shouldn't be buried so far down in the help menu; it took me several months before I even bothered to try it out.

• fixed Wolfram rules
• drawing on a triangular grid is now more accurate
• fixed an issue with Triangular B0 rules
• updated Neighbourhood in Help information with triangular neighbourhood
• AutoFit now works better on bounded grids with an infinite dimension
• canonical alias names are now displayed

muzik wrote:Can the default colours for the none rule be made to be the default golly colours?

• increased maximum zoom to 64x
  • hotkey Shift and "3" sets 64x zoom
• added empty rule "none" which does not change cells each generation
  • can be postfixed with neighbourhood and/or bounded grid
  • uses Golly's default colour set

• custom colours for Generations rules were in reverse order
• Help information had incorrect sign for POI X and Y

muzik wrote:The slider for the "none" rule still seems to default to generations, which doesn't make much sense since the slider does nothing. I don't think the slider should be removed from none either, though, since one might want to customise how the none rule looks.

What did you have in mind? Only smallish patterns would benefit from a larger step unless you have a very fast computer.

• increased maximum STEP to 64
• deprecated [[ STRICT ]] validation command

• custom colour could not be applied to state 255
• global camera and view settings were being ignored when POIs defined
• disabled Themes for "none" rule
• improved rule name validation

• new script command [[ PASTE T X Y name|rle ]] - test
  • pastes the given rle (or named rle) at position X, Y at generation T
• new script command [[ PASTEMODE OR|COPY|XOR|AND|NOT ]]
  • sets paste mode for subsequent [[ PASTE ]] commands (default is OR)
• new script command [[ RLE name rle ]]
  • associates name with rle for use in [[ PASTE ]] command

• Generations rules were fading an extra step when all cells died
• an invalid pattern could cause a crash on the PopUp Viewer if the previous valid pattern had been [R]History
• entire pattern would not display on the PopUpViewer at T=0 if previous pattern had smaller bounding box
• drawing LifeHistory state 5 was incorrect on one corner of 16x16 tile boundaries

• new script command [[ PASTET ]] - test
  • defines the paste generation for subsequent [[ PASTE ]] commands
  • [[ PASTET gen ]] defines a single generation gen
  • [[ PASTET EVERY interval (start) ]] defines every interval generations starting at start (or 0 if not defined)
  • [[ PASTE ]] command no longer has the T parameter

• adjusted snapshot interval to new maximum STEP size
