WinMGT

    Keywords: Software

WinMGT is a so-called SGF editor. You can find it at [ext] http://www.dynamicfish.com/. Files are available at [ext] ftp://www.joy.ne.jp/welcome/igs/Go/mgt.

RiffRaff: Support and development seems to have been abandoned for this product. The last web site update was in December 2003 and the last message from Hui Huang on the guestbook was in April 2004. Final versions look to be v0.87 for WinMGT and v1.04 for WinIGC (the Go Client).

TakeNGive: Great shareware MS-Windows program for SGF files; handles variations well, and has useful "go to next comment" and "next variation" features. Can translate SGF into rec.games.go-style ASCII and back. Handles large files well (such as Kogos Joseki Dictionary). I love it, partly for the many keyboard shortcuts.

Dieter: What bothers me in the latest version is that when variations unfold, the "var" node shows all moves until the next branch. The annoting effect is that when you go to the next move, all minus one moves disappear, so that the added move doesn't jump to the eye. Does someone know how to disable this ?

jvt: A few questions to the experts: is there any way to:

  • reorder variations?
  • play first move as white? (can be useful for problems)
