As a side note, a pass is represented by zero characters
between brackets.  A space is, strictly speaking, an
error, though most parsers out there will probably not
even notice.

Oh.

We originally had no character between the brackets, but when
we had posted some sgf files we were told that we were supposed
to have a space there, so we added it.

In some ways this reinforces my earlier comment about how hard
it can be to be careful enough in C.


Cheers,
