New port: games/gturing - A simple Turing machine for gnome2
Gturing is a simple turing machine simulator with graphical interface. A Turing machine is the simplest possible computing device which can only perform very simple operations. However, almost everything in programming languages can be written as a program for the Turing machine. It's a nice complement for students who likes to practice with theory and a nice toy to play with. PR: ports/40368 Submitted by: Juan Salaverria <rael@vectorstar.net>
