kifu
    Keywords: Go term

A kifu is a record of a go game.


Blank kifus designed by Dr. Fred Hansen of CMU can be downloaded here:

 * 19x19 [ext] PDF [ext] PS
 * 13x13 [ext] PDF [ext] PS
 * 9x9 [ext] PDF [ext] PS

David: kifu.ps is hand-written PostScript, and the author has made it easy to change board sizes. Open the file in a text editor and change line 9:

 /boardsize 19 def		% number of lines

If you need the kifu in PDF, you can use the ps2pdf program that comes with [ext] Ghostscript. There is [ext] a web site that has a web interface to that program, but I've never used it.

The program doesn't draw hoshi in the way you might expect. To get nine hoshi on a 13 × 13 board, change line 58 to

 		[[1] [2] [3] [3 7] [3 9] [4 7 10] [4 8 12] [4 9 14] [4 10 16]]

The program as it stands now is not capable of drawing five hoshi as on 13x13 Board.

How to record a kifu provides instructions on how to use the aforementioned kifu templates.
