Hello Tord,

 

As far as I understand it, the program Bonanza is using the CSA protocol to communicate with a GUI called CSA XT. You can download this GUI from http://homepage3.nifty.com/floatinghome/software.html

The protocol is extended to pass engine parameters from the GUI to the engine.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Albrecht Heeffer

I am aware of the CSA protocol, but the CSA protocol and my proposed
USI protocol serve entirely different purposes, and one cannot replace
the other.  The CSA protocol is made for allowing shogi engines
running on multiple computers (possibly even on several operating
systems) to connect to a central server and play automated games
against each other.  The USI protocol is made for communication
between a GUI and a shogi engine running on the same machine.
