I think you are muddying the waters by calling non-standard extensions 'standard' coordinates. I don't see any reason why [C4] should be harder to read than [cd]. Not for humans, and not for computers. I see many good reasons for sticking to *one* standard, and everyone using the same. At least for exchange of data - what you use internally in your programs is of course your own business. Even if a new proposed standard would have many benefits, obvious to everyone (which I have not yet seen), I would stuill urge people to consider those benefits carefully, and to weigh them against the problems that arise from having two incompatible standards. Just my personal opinion, of course. - Heikki -- Heikki Levanto "In Murphy We Turst" heikki (at) lsd (dot) dk _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
