Entering an annotated match
|
> Is there an user friendly way of inputing an annotated match into GNU?
It's not very difficult, and I do this while playing over the matches at
GOL. Presuming you're using the newer GUI, do this:
1) Start a match of any length, pressing the New button, and select
Human-Human and manual dice.
2) If the side that starts is the wrong one, in other words the dice pane
of the wrong color appears, just choose any dice, and after they
appear, go to the Game menu and choose 'Select Turn'.
3) To change the names, use the Edit button at the top. If you want to
enter information such as the name of the Annotator, date, locale, etc.
go to the Game menu and choose Match Information.
4) To enter written comments, you first have to play the move, and then go
back to the move in the move list to be able to use the Commentary pane
(feel free to close the Messages pane from the Windows menu). Don't
forget to save the match every once in a while.
5) One comment: when entering the Cube commentary of a cube play (meaning
it was turned), select the Take/Pass decision to enter the commentary.
The reason is that if you export it after, and didn't do this, the
commentary appears before the cube decision and not after as it should.
Tip: while entering the match, if you wish to see GNU's opinion while you
are entering the moves, play the move on the board and press the Hint
button. In the latest builds, if you have done this, the results will then
be placed with the move so that it means it is already analyzed when you
run the full match analysis. Mind you, it will preserve the information
even if you ran a deeper 3-ply or 4-ply from the Hint window. After
playing the move and confirming the dice, go back in the move list and
click on the move, and you'll see the analysis appear in the Analysis pane
as it should.
