| I made some slides which I want to use to introduce go in a short course I will give in an Esperanto meeting in the summer. The course will probably be just about an hour long, so I will really only be able to cover very basic stuff. Still, I think it will be good to use a projector with these slides (and probably, at times, to switch to an SGF editor and "play" a few stones), and to distribute handouts of this so that people can make notes. The goal should be that at the end of this hour (and maybe even during the coures), people can start playing. | Mi verkis tre koncizan enkondukon al go-ludo kiun mi intencas uzi kiel projekciajxojn en mallonga kurso kiun mi okazigos en somera renkontigxo. La kurso antauxvideble dauxros nur unu horon, do mi vere povos paroli nur pri la plej bazaj aspektoj. Tamen mi esperas ke estos helpo montri pere de projekciilo cxi tiujn notojn, kaj eble foje sxangxi al SGF-prilabora programo por povi "meti" kelkajn sxtonojn sur la tabulon, kaj ankaux distribui printitajn kopiojn, por ke homoj povu mem aldoni notojn kaj poste rerigardi ilin. La celo estos ke post tiu horo (aux eble ecx dum gxi), la partoprenantoj povos ekludi. |

 | About two weeks ago, Gilles Arcas published the new version of Drago, an SGF editor with lots of features (exercise go problems, print diagrams ...). The new version includes the libkombilo library and can do pattern searches and searches for game information (players, etc.). In my opinion, Gilles succeeded in creating a very intuitive user interface for the pattern search. Drago is freeware for Windows. |

Here is another unfinished project which nevertheless might be useful for somebody. Using Python and the Reportlab toolkit, the script goboard.py produces a pdf file showing a given position on the go board. The position has to be given in wiki format (as used by Sensei's Library), and as in SL diagrams, stones can be labelled with 1-10, and other labels can be put at empty points.
One thing you can do with a pdf is to produce an image file from it - the example here was produced in this way, and so were the pictures of go problems used to prevent comments from spam bots.

Like a number of other people I had a go at rendering a go board with POVRay. The picture shown here was produced in this way.
