Hi again,

With 2d CAs, removing two opposite corners in a "9 cell" testing grid 
results in hexagonal growth. Just another example of fractal foam :)

Somehow it remembers me a strange kind of foam.

This looks great. Is it a macro? And if, can we download it somewhere?

Greetings,

Thanks! The DF3 was generated by a C++ program I wrote, so no, there's 
no macro for this. I've thought about making some CA macros, but I 
haven't really figured out a good way for the end user to supply new 
functions. I'll keep everyone informed if I do figure something out.
