Re: gnuchess 6, trouble to build book.bin
Hi, Antonio Ceballos acebal...@gmail.com writes: I have verified your report, i.e. that the command below works for GNU Chess v5, but not for v6, due to the different way to handle the user input. The obvious way to compile a book in v6 is to run GNU Chess, enter the 'book add filename' command, and quit once the book is done. However, I presume that you want to avoid the interactive use of the program. Yes, that's exactly my problem. Therefore, I have added a new option --addbook filename that allows to do what you want. I think this is a nice improvement to the program. Now you can type the following command: gnuchess --addbook book_1.02.pgn That will create book.bin and will exit. This is uploaded in the SVN repository in savannah (http://svn.savannah.gnu.org /viewvc/trunk/?root=chess). I will include it in the next release, along with a few other updates. Let me know if this works for you. Thanks a lot, it works fine. Do you plan to release a new version soon ? It would be easier for me if you do a release with this option because I won't have to take a svn snapshot.
