You have to create "gnushogi" from GNU Shogi -(version 1.3). Xshogi has been created by modifying XBoard 2.0 and XBoard 2.1 -by Tim Mann. Xshogi was originally written by Matthias Mutz -(mutz@fmi.uni-passau.de) but is now being maintained by me, Mike Vanier -(mvanier@bbb.caltech.edu). I would like to thank Matthias for passing the -maintenance of this program over to me. - -For changes since the last version please read the file NEWS. The most -significant change is that xshogi has been merged into the gnushogi source -tree, and it is now very easy to configure and build both programs at the same -time. In addition, support for the Internet Shogi Server has been dropped. -There are now much better ways to play Shogi over the internet (such as -JavaShogi), and the ISS support seemed to be only partial, so I decided (as -the new maintainer) to keep things simple and just remove ISS support -altogether. - -For creating xshogi read the file INSTALL in the top-level gnushogi -directory. - -If you determine bugs, please save the game, and rerun xshogi with the --debug True option. Report the bug to me. By the way, gnushogi (the shogi -playing program used by xshogi) can produce a record of the game if you -#define LIST_ON_EXIT in the file `gnushogi/opts.h'. - -In order to determine the options, try "xshogi -help". A man page is also -included. - -You can give GNU Shogi more searching time by using the -tc option. For -example, "xshogi -tc 15" allows GNU Shogi to think 15 minutes for 40 moves. - -You can choose a western style piece set by invoking xshogi with -wps True. -This can also be set in your .Xdefaults file or .Xresources file. See the -xshogi man page for more about X resources. - -In case of trouble, comments or suggestions for improvements you may contact me. -Otherwise, enjoy the program :-) - -Mike Vanier (mvanier@bbb.caltech.edu) -
