New gogui release is coming

[Rémi Coulom]

Hi,

I will soon prepare a new release of gogui. There are a few issues I want to fix first. It may take a few days. If you have anything you wish to see in the next release, it is a good time to fill an issue or submit a PR on github: https://github.com/Remi-Coulom/gogui

Interesting new features include the possibility to play on very large boards (up to 52x52), and better support for alternatives games. I have implemented a system that allows moving pieces, so I can now play amazons, chess, and shogi in gogui. Here are some screenshots:

The 1.5.2 release is online: https://github.com/Remi-Coulom/gogui

• Don't use Quaqua anymore, which should fix some crashes on macOS (issue #18).
• Support for large boards up to 52x52.
• Support for games with moving pieces such as chess or ataxx
• Drag-and-drop of sgf files (thanks to @zakki)
• Fix wrong player names in sgf from gogui-twogtp -alternate (issue #9, thanks to @tomtseng)
• New `gogui-rules_captured_count` command.
• Minor fixes and improvements.

Please let me know if you experience any problem.

Hi!

Are you planning cutechess-cli functionality eventually? Like that it can do tournaments?

I am not planning this in the short term.
