''Game editing and reading XuanXuanGo has the complete functions for Go game editing and reading, supports most of SGF properties and does extension to the popular format. Game editing and reading is the basics of life-and-death and joseki. Following picture is the interface of game editing.''

Extension to SGF File format

SGF file format is the de-facto standard of Go game files. XuanXuanGo supports almost all of its properties, excepts for drawing lines, arrows, and a handful of other properties which XuanXuanGo takes as unnecessary. Although SGF is very popular, it has some limitations: no file description, no file type information--is this an ordinary game file? or is it a joseki file? or is it a problem file? Type information is important, as programs use different ways to open files of different types. The properties for each move in a game are not enough. XuanXuanGo introduces a new file type to address above problems, many new properties for Go problems, Joseki, and Go tutorial materials are added. The new file format is called XGF (XuanXuanGo File), it's binary and more efficient in storage uses.
