15.3 Rotating the seed.

The various methods for setting the seed allow it to be ``rotated'' left/right for 1d, left/right/up/down for 2d. This is done from the keyboard with the ``l/r/u/d`` keys. The bit pattern is displaced within the ring of cells in 1d, or within the torus in 2d. and this change shows up immediately in the bit pattern, hex or decimal representation of the seed.
