@RULE Worm-complement

Paterson's worms - Erase solid regions, leaving only points with at least one uneaten edge, and the single point or line with an arrow. Use this with rules like 1252121 and 1525115, which fill regions with density near 100%, to see the uneaten paths within the regions: After running such a rule for a while, switch to this rule and run for 1 generation. (by Dean Hickerson, 11/20/2008)

States: 0 empty (unvisited point or line) 1-6 'point with arrow', showing direction of next movement

            (1=E; 2=SE; 3=SW; 4=W; 5=NW; 6=NE)

7 point that's been visited 8,9,10 edge - (8=line; 9=E arrow; 10=W arrow) 11,12,13 edge / (11=line; 12=NE arrow; 13=SW arrow) 14,15,16 edge \ (14=line; 15=SE arrow; 16=NW arrow)
