=== PolyGlot 1.4W ==== Polyglot 1.4W is a modified polyglot 1.4 from Fabien Letouzy. Just like polyglot 1.3w(see below) it can be compiled and run under windows without the need for a cygwin1.dll Best Fonzy www.geenvis.net =========1.4w10================ fixed analysis output for toga =========1.4w9================= fixed bug in 1.4w8 added RepeatPV workaround fixed disappearing output in engine-output window while in multipv mode when an engine sends its move to polyglot, polyglot normally repeats the last pv string(which also contains score,depth and time usage) it got from the engine. Some engines however do not send a new pv string just before sending the move and the now old pv string find might confuse debugtools that parse the winboard debug files. Adding "RepeatPV = false" to the [POLYGLOT] section of the ini file stops this repetition. =========1.4w8================= fixed multipv output note that the pv with the worst score will be on top of the engine-output window. added timestamp in logfile (Jaap Weidemann) =========1.4w7================= compiles under linux/unix again =========1.4w6================= access to winboard draw/drawoffer and resign 1:to activate draw offers the engine has to define the "UCI_DrawOffers" parameter with the 'option" command at startup. 2:to offer a draw or accept a draw offer:just send "info string DrawOffer" to polyglot. 3:if winboard sends "draw" polyglot sends "setoption DrawOffer draw" to the engine. 4.to resign: send "info string Resign" to polyglot. please check the winboard documentation for the draw/drawoffer and resign commands. =========1.4w5:================ Fixed errors in SyncStop handling. book building: the error message now also contains the game number added Affinity option: In the [PolyGlot] section(ini file): - "Affinity" mask mask is a bit vector in which each bit represents the processors that a process is allowed to run on. some minor bugs fixed checks if child did really quit. ********************************************************* === PolyGlot 1.3W ReadMe === PolyGlot - a UCI-to-WinBoard Adapter for UCI Chess Engines Designed by Fabien Letouzey and Morning Yellow Version: 1.3W, Last Modified: Jan. 2006 PolyGlot 1.3W is the modified version of 1.3 by Fabien Letouzey, which can be compiled and run under Windows without CygWin.
