Drago 4.00 announcement
Gilles Arcas
I am glad to inform you that the 4.00 release of Drago can be
downloaded at http://www.godrago.net .
The purpose of this release is mainly related with game engines:
- All current game engines are predefined. Just download them and
declare them in the interface. No more need to enter command lines and
the interface is updated to take into account the features of each
engine.
- Several game engines can be defined in the interface. Just select
one of them when starting a game.
- Games against engines may use timing, by defining time per game,
time per move or Canadian byo-yomi.
- More analysis functions from Gnu Go may be used: scoring, move
suggestion, group status and influence regions.
- An optional GTP window enables to monitor the dialog between engines
and interface.
Other new features worthy to mention:
- new configurable, floatable, dockable, minimizable sidebar
- new game information panel with possible display of player images
- additional settings for replay and problem modes
- additional editing functions: remove properties and make main
branch.
These have been added to the following features:
- Drago is Windows freeware,
- it is a multi-tab browser-editor of files in SGF format,
- it includes all database features from libkombilo,
- it enables to solve problems, or replay games, by letting the user
guess the moves of his color,
- it enables to print or export figures or full games with a lot a
formats and parameters,
- it is translated into 15 languages including Japanese, Chinese and
Korean.
Best regards and a very happy new year!
