Evolution of a Go program

About the development of Moyo Go Studio, software to (help) play the Oriental game of Go. Go is a two-player zero-sum game of perfect information. It is considered much harder than Chess. Currently, in spite of enormous effort expended, no computer program plays it above the level of a beginner.

RTF, PNG, PDF, EMF, HTML, TIFF

This is some output to RTF, loaded by MS Word. Text lines can be selected and moved.

RTF, PNG, PDF, EMF, HTML and TIFF are the formats that made it into the final selection. Anything else is superfluous.

I could concentrate well today. I had to rewrite some rendering code in that report generator library I bought, again, to make everything look exactly the same and to get the same rendering features across all output formats.


I also made an elegant way to make sections bold. There still is very much to do, I hope to get it done by the end of this year.
