[gnugo-devel] GUI for gnugo

[Wolfgang Manner]

The GUI for GNU Go

Two implementations  two modes

Two implementations:

1. GNU Go + JAGO (modified)
   works for
   LINUX
   Windows with and without Cygwin
   MAC OSX in preparation
   needs Java

2. GNU Go + Gtk+
   works for
   LINUX
   Windows is possible but somebody else has to do the work


Two modes:

1. mode ascii
   has all the options and commands of mode ascii
   in particular
   save and replay a saved game
   backspace forward goto
   force GNU Go to play a move

2. mode gtp:

a. you can play for instance the sequence mentioned in the manual at 19.1
   and whenever you type
   showboard
   you get a decent display and not X's and O's
b. As mentioned in the manual at 19.2 you can play
   human against GNU Go. This is not (yet) as comfortable as mode ascii,
   but you have all the gtp commands available.
