On 21 and 22 Dec 1992, Miguel Echavarria <mech%mdis1 <at> WDL1 <dot> WDL <dot> LORAL <dot> COM>
and Rob Potter <XARJP <at> LEVELS <dot> UNISA <dot> EDU <dot> AU> discussed the availability of
Shogi Notation software and a uniform notation format.
 
I have just added to the archives a Macintosh program called Shogi Kifu
(in .sea .hqx format) that can record Shogi game scores. In the .sea
archive I have included every file that came with the program and maybe
one more :-). The program is ancient (and might not work with System 7)
and I have not really used it myself. I do know that I could not fathom
the format that it used to store games. Hopefully somebody who is
cleverer than I am can crack this nut. Don't ask me any questions about
the program because I just have it and know nothing about it.
 
All you daredevils out there, just send a mail with the command
GET SHOGI KIFU
to LISTSERV <at> TECHNION <dot> BITNET or LISTSERV <at> TECHNION <dot> TECHNION <dot> AC <dot> IL
and have a go at it.
 
Enjoy !
