[-min-game games] [-min-score score] [-only-white] [-only-black]
move with the highest weight is selected.
BookLearn (default: false)
- Store learning information in the book (which must be writable).
- Currently no engine actually uses this information.
+ This is a noop.
BookDepth (default: 256)
Stop using the book after this number of moves.
This a bit vector in which each bit represents the processors that
a process is allowed to run on. This option works only on Windows.
+ STFudge (default: 20)
+ PolyGlot will translate "st x" as "go movetime 1000*x-STFudge".
+ The rationale is that in the UCI specification the argument of
+ movetime is defined as the exact search time whereas the argument
+ of the st command is only an upperbound.
+
OnlyWbOptions (default: true)
If true then PolyGlot restricts the options it sends to those that
are potentially useful for WinBoard.
xboard -fcp fruit -fUCI
- An explicit command line for using the UCI engine "fruit" with 128M
- hash in xboard with logging enabled (this also works on xboard 4.2.7).
+ An explicit command line for using the UCI engine "fruit" with logging
+ enabled (this works also with older versions of xboard).
- xboard -fcp "polyglot -noini -log -ec fruit -hash 128"
+ xboard -fcp "polyglot -noini -log true -ec fruit"
The equivalent config file would be:
EngineCommand = fruit
Log = true
[Engine]
- Hash=128
Compile "games.pgn" into a book "book.bin" retaining all lines of at
most 30 plies.
