You can of course type those commands directly to an engine to help debug the format (to see what works and what is expected to come back) and gnugo probably has the best gtp implementation. It would be nice for debugging controllers to be able to simulate an engine by typing commands "as if" you were the engine (not the controller.) I would not be surprised if gogui has a tool that can do something like that. - Don > ~ Ross > > terry mcintyre wrote: > > Ross, > > > > I'm not getting it; what problem are you trying to solve? > > > >> From: Ross Werner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >> > >> Hi all, > >> > >> I'm looking for a very simple GUI GTP engine--not a controller.
