README excerpt:
SGF Utils is a set of programs for manipulating Smart Game
Format files, principally for the game of Go. This release
includes one tool: the viewing program sgfv. The code is
"early to middling alpha"; see HACKING for why.
NEWS excerpt:
- 0.3 | 2012-10-31
- bugfix: redisplay comments correctly on ‘v’
Previously, ‘v’ updated the board, leaving stale comments,
requiring ‘C-l’ for correct redisplay. Now comments are OK.
- prefix arg displayed
Some would say this is user-coddling of the worst sort, but
that's ok. Perhaps in the future we can emulate Emacs and only
display the prefix arg after one second of inactivity...
- indication of possible variations
The lineage for a node now displays with a trailing ‘/N’ for
nodes that have sibling variations. This basically means when
you see ‘/N’, you can type ‘v’ or even ‘Mv’, where (<= 1 M N),
w/o fear of the dread admonishment "(no variations)" appearing.
For example, given the gametree (two forks, three ends):
A---B---C---D
\
--E---F
\
--G---H
node - lineage - what happens when you type ‘v’
A - -
B - -
C v.1/2 jump to E
D v.1 -
E v.2/2 jump to C
F v.2.1/2 jump to G
G v.2.2/2 jump to F
H v.2.2 -
- partial view concavities stark
Previously, concavities in a partial view were displayed w/ the
board bg color. Now, they are displayed w/ the space bg color.
Fellow cave-dwellers should find it slightly easier on the eyes.
- demo SGF file spiffed
The SGF file for "make check" now includes suggestions to use
'v' in the appropriate places. It also includes near the end of
the main line a sequence of non-move nodes that exercise partial
view support. (See also files bad and sen in sgf/, for more.)
