Overview on file formats to store (and exchange) Go games.
Go game positions can be visualized in plain ascii code, too. Less common, but still used is the PNG? file format. mgoetze: I have never seen PNG used to store or exchange Go games. Rather, UGF and Ishi seem much more common...
Velobici: Is there another meaning to PNG other than AshleyF: PNG or PGN (Portable Game Notation)?
PurpleHaze: PNG is only ever Portable Network Graphics. PGN is TimBrent-itsyourturn.com uses PGN for it's Go games. gtwade - Is there any software out there to convert PGN to SGF? I've played a few go games on IYT and would like to replay them on Multigo, but the board nomenclature is different: IYT includes an "i" in their coordinates and the rest of the go world exccludes it. The only thing I could come up with is a spreadsheet that changes "i" to "j", "j" to "k", etc. But, then I have to hand play them into Multigo. Help!
