Basic Usage

1. Write your favorite turing machine program. You should write the tuples of the machine and declare the initial state, the accept state and, optionally, a reject state.
   The tuples are in the form currentState input nextState output direction where input/output can be a letter, digit, symbol (except for comma) or _ (underscore) which denotes null.
   Direction can be either 1 (right) or -1 (left). Note that if input or output are longer that 1 character only the first character will be kept.
   All commands are separated by comma.
2. Give a test input.
3. START the machine!

Multiple Machines

You can create multiple machines and call the one machine from the other.

1. Create a new machine by pushing the green button and program that machine as you like.
2. Give that machine a name e.g. machineB
3. Now to call machineB from another machine, use state0 input0 exec machineB which will execute machineB when it encounters state0 and input0.
   For example, if you want machineB to be called when you are at state q1 and you read 0 you should use q1 0 exec machineB.
