Re: Tools to convert xg file format to sgf

[Turker Eflanli]

It just parses the file, with the python scripts attached to this email thread, then shows biggest jokers and biggest blunders, nothing fancy, just makes it easier to concentrate on big errors

Sounds interesting. Would you be willing to make your program public? I'd love to see its output.

Thanks! However, I have a program that reads an XG file and creates a report. I would like to do the same on an sgf file, so I either need to convert it to xg format or need to figure out the sgf format itself so I can update my own program. I want to be able to do all this without the help of either XG or GNU interfaces

XG supports importing .sgf files. Look under File>Import>GnuBG.

Does anyone know a way to convert a GNU analyzed sgf file to xg format? If not, is there documentation that explains the sgf format?

Thanks in advance

Thank you so much, Turker.

I see I get some problems with this code when I try to read the WC2022 final, however, I think the problems are solvable.

I've gathered the code in a github repository:

https://github.com/oysteijo/xgdatatools

And just as I did that, I also saw that another github user has already done the same 3 years ago:

Here they are - I don't remember where I had downloaded them from

However, it would still be good to have the Petch-tools. :-)

Øystein,

Find attached the raw file that you can analyze in GNU

Hi!

I was thinking of analysing the WC 2022 final and found the final available in .xg format.

I think Michael Petch wrote some tools to convert xg file into sgf format. Are these tools available somewhere?

It states at: https://www.extremegammon.com/XGformat.aspx

that the python source for his tools are here:

http://vcs.capp-sysware.com/gitweb/?p=backgammon/xgdatatools.git

However, it looks like this site is down.

BTW: How is Michael? Is he still subscribing to this list? I've not heard from him in a long time. He posts on his FB profile, but he isn't very responsive. :-)
