Hello Giles,

I downloaded the latest version of Drago (which includes the "LibKombilo.dll" 
file that someone mentioned), copied in your patch, and played Mogo for a few 
moves. It seems to work OK. YAY!

I'll mention this here, since others might encounter it. There is a small race 
condition problem in the latest (patched and unpatched) version of Drago that 
wasn't there in earlier versions. If you set Mogo to play white, and then 
quickly make your first move as black, Drago will hang until you select 
"Cancel" from the menu. It does the same thing with my engine. 

Drago blocks the player from trying to move while the engine is thinking 
about?its own?move. But apparently?he is -not- blocked from moving when Drago 
should be waiting for the engine to respond to a command like "name." So if the 
player moves while the engine is still busy reading its initialization files, 
Drago gets stuck.

Gnugo initializes so quickly that the player probably couldn't click a button 
fast enough to "win" this ?race.

Subject: [computer-go] Update of MoGo binary release, and windows version 
available!


Hello Dave, bonjour Sylvain,?
?
yes they are some problems to use MoGo with Drago. The main issue is the 
initial message written to stderr as guessed by Dave. Actually, Drago handles 
incorrectly stdout and stderr in the same way but this is easily corrected.?
?
I have uploaded a patch for using MoGo with Drago: 
www.godrago.net/DragoForMogoPatch.zip. The zip contains an exe file which 
should replace the one from the current Drago install.?
?
As MoGo does not implement the GTP command final_result, an error message is 
displayed at the end of the game and the user must count the result. (By the 
way, is there a problem with 'final_status_list alive' ?)?
?
I could let the dll and the data files in MoGo folder without any problem.?
?
Amicalement?
Gilles?
