Re: [Bug-gnubg] Including function to get matchid in the gnubg Python module.

[Michael Petch]

It is not your imagination (That the function is missing), and it has  
been asked for previously (Bob Koca pointed it out the last time). I  
haven't done specific programming within gnubg to expose functions in  
pyhton, but I think one would probably look at gnubgmodule.c and take  
a function that does exist like PythonPositionID (positionid) and  
model a matchid from it. If you search for PythonPositionD in that  
file you should be able to get some ideas that may help you.
