SGF parser available

[Antti Huima <huima@xxxxxx>]

Hi,

I just want to announce that I wrote a rudimentary SGF parser. It can read
SGF(4) files according to the SGF standard. Reading results in a tree data
structure representing the file that can be further manipulated by someone
using the parser. The parser module is also able to write the trees back
to SGF(4) files.

I don't know if it is useful to you. Because it might be, I put the parser
available as free software. If you want to obtain it you can download it
from

  http://security-hole.hut.fi/distrib/

I hope that someone will check it out, because there could be some bugs
and it would be nice if someone would test the parser. I'm also open to
suggestions for improvements.

I'm not aware of any other existing easy-to-use SGF parser. There is the
reference implementation, but I don't know if it is easy to use.

I wrote the parser mainly because I want to store my pattern databases as
SGF files so that I can edit them with any SGF editor.
