Subject: GnuGo Mac Pack 0.5
The GnuGo Mac Pack offers two ways of playing the game of Go (also known as
Igo, Baduk, and WeiQi) on any Macintosh (68k or greater, system 7 or
greater): The GnuGo way, which is an _anymac_ compile of version 2.6 of the
GnuGo program developed by the Free Software Foundation (see
www.gnu.org/software/gnugo/ for more information), or the Mac way, which
offers a GUI interface to play go against your Mac using the GnuGo engine.
MacGnuGo 0.5 (the Mac way) offers 10 levels to the GnuGo engine, fancy
board patterns and stones, and atari, capture, pass, and stone click
sounds. You can watch moyo and your dragon status change in real time, as
you move. You can play against GnuGo, yourself, watch GnuGo play itself,
get hints, and get your current score .
MacGnuGo 0.5 is freeware, and is free code. The source code is included.
GnuGo 2.6, the engine, is free code as well. See
www.gnu.org/software/gnugo/ or the README file for more info.
Requirements:
At least 16 Megs available (I know, it's huge. I'll fix this somehow.)
System 7 or greater
A Mac!
MacGnuGo 0.5 is far from finished yet, but very playable. I wanted people
out there to know that there's to be a front end to GnuGo for the Mac. So
Enjoy!
