Re: Tools to convert xg file format to sgf

[Chris Wilson]

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:

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. :-)
