CGoban ("Complete Goban") provides a large set of go-related services
|
|
for Unix and X11. A list of the functions that it provides:
|
|
* Play go against another player. When playing a game locally, you
|
|
have a choice of rule sets and time controls. I made a strong
|
|
attempt at implementing the rule sets as precisely as possible:
|
|
+ Chinese rules have a true Superko rule.
|
|
+ Japanese rules correctly recognize seki and award no points.
|
|
+ Japanese rules let you locally resolve disputes at the end of
|
|
the game.
|
|
* Edit and view SGF files. CGoban provides full functionality for
|
|
editing and viewing SGF files.
|
|
* Connect to a go server over the internet. CGoban can connect to
|
|
NNGS or IGS and gives a convienent graphical user interface to the
|
|
server.
|
|
* Act as a bridge to go modem protocol. Go modem protocol has become
|
|
a standard way for computer go programs to communicate. CGoban can
|
|
let you connect to devices (such as modems) speaking go modem
|
|
protocol, act as a graphical board for programs that speak go
|
|
modem protocol out of stdin/stdout, or connect programs to one of
|
|
the internet go servers.
