Go-gui as proven it's usefullness.
I currently mainly use it for GTP testing, and for two-gtp measures.
At some point i implemented the analysis commands. However i remember
it as a very consuming task, and it wasn't very usefull to me.
Rather than only pointing randomly at Gogui, i'd rather you point me at either
a tutorial, or a documentation that target specifically the needs i want to 
cover.


The need i want to be covered is : 
*****************************************************************************
A TOOL FOR UNIT and NON-REGRESSION TESTING OF A BOARD IMPLEMENTATION.
****************************************************************************
I want it to be really simple to implement, and i want it to enable iterative
testing. I want it so, that in 30 minutes maximum, you can both know
how to use the tool, and have implemented any specific code you need
to use it.

For example, i'd like first to be able to debug the board-implementation
before the capture-detection is completed.
Classically i do the following :
- Specify roughly the data structure
- Implement the basic things to get a board with black,white, empty (optionally 
edge).
- Implements (and debug heavily) the stuff for capture detection
- Implements the stuff for eye detection.
- Implements the stuff for ko detection.

- At any point, i implement a way to get an empty intersection randomly 
suggested.
Sometime i do this very late, sometime i do it very early.

- I then implements some more stuff to have the possibility of making 
standard-light-playouts
- I implement a full random bot GTP version.
- I then implements an amaf GTP version.

What i want here, is a tool, that i use BEFORE the first full random GTP bot.
A flexible tool, that i can also use to make up non-regression board testing, 
and archive/load them as appropriate,
for both same and very different board implementations.


----------
Now, if gogui enable to cover exactly those needs, how does it comply with the 
30 minute window ?
Who can help me point out where to look to learn to use those particular 
features that cover my needs.
What can be done to make it even more worthy for all the Board-implementation 
debugging needs ?

As for now, i rejected gogui as a board-implementation debugging tool. I use 
gogui only as GTP-bot testing tool.
