The xtoys package includes sources for:

 xising         a two dimensional Ising model simulator
 xpotts         for the two dimensional Potts model
 xautomalab     a totalistic cellular automaton simulator
 xsand          for the Bak, Tang, Wiesenfeld sandpile model
 xfires         a simple forest fire automaton
 xtoys.tar      all the files combined
 
For each source there is a corresponding .txt readme file.

The Makefile is kind of trivial, but it is here for those that like
such things.  To compile after unpacking, first type "make". If this
does not work, try typing "xmkmf" and then "make".  If this still does
not work, look into the original makefile and put in the necessary
paths by hand.

At present, all except xising and xautomalab require a color monitor.

I want these to compile under generic X; so if you have problems
on some machine supporting X, I would appreciate knowing so
I can fix things.

The latest versions are kept at http://penguin.phy.bnl.gov/www/xtoys.html
