DESCRIPTION

Simple text based interface to Go programs supporting the Go Text Protocol. The argument program is a command line for the Go program . The interface keeps track of the board and prints it after each change on the board. If a move (coordinate on the board or pass) is entered, it is played on the board for the color to move, followed by a genmove command sent to the program. Other supported commands are:

genmove

Send a genmove command for the color to move to the program.

help

list

Send a list_commands command to the program.

load

Load game from a SGF file. Moves are translated into play commands for the program.

newgame [size]

Start a new game with a given board size.

save

Save game to file in SGF format.

undo

Send a undo command to the program.

quit

Terminate program and exit.

GTP commands that change the board state are not allowed. Other GTP commands are forwarded to the program.
