Golly
If you have a 64-bit operating system, please install 64-bit versions of software. It will simplify everything. Your worry might be that most software will use twice as much memory, owing to 64-bit pointers as opposed to 32-bit pointers. This is seldom true: much software running on 64-bit architectures use 32-bit array indices to avoid that problem at the (small) expense of additional array indirection. (Minisat and lifelib fall into that category.) -- APG Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2019 at 3:12...

Golly
I can confirm this happens occasionally on Ubuntu with the XFCE desktop environment. It often fixes itself eventually (maybe after a reboot or apt-get dist-upgrade?), though. -- APG.

Golly
<html><head></head><body> A Golly script can be set to automatically run from the command line by calling: golly scriptname.py in a non-interactive manner. Now, I don't know whether it's possible to quit Golly from within a Python script, but you can certainly cheat by creating a Bash script which invokes 'golly scriptname.py' and periodically checks for the appearance of an output file in the working directory (saved by the Python script upon completion) and killing the Golly process.
