Caterer (xp3_4hh186z07)

#C [[ GRID THUMBLAUNCH THUMBSIZE 2 THEME Catagolue ]]
x = 1, y = 1, rule = B3/S23
b!
This pattern is an oscillator.
This pattern is periodic with period 3.
This pattern runs in standard life (b3s23).
The population fluctuates between 12 and 16.
This evolutionary sequence works in multiple rules, from b3-kys2-n3air through to b34-anz5-ai6-a78s234-ajr5-inr6-ck78.

Ah, hang on a moment -- I have some notes about "bespoke git-flavoured Catagolue markdown" for use. It says here these comments should support

and most importantly RLE:

'''rle x = 46, y = 42, rule = B3/S23 14bo$14bobo$14b2o3$8bo$9bo13bobo$7b3o13b2o$3o21bo$2bo$bo13$13b3o11b3o$ 13bo13bo$14bo13bo$3o$2bo$bo11$44bo$43b2o$43bobo! '''

[Copy everything except the header line if you want to paste the RLE from the previous comment into Golly. There are no [code] tags here as there are on conwaylife.com -- straight copies from HTML tend to replace newlines with spaces, and replace multiple spaces with one space, by default.]
