I am gettting huge numbers of game.00x and log.00x files in my winboard folder. My crafty rc file (win xp op system) is as follows
egtb
tbpath=d:\tablebases\
hash=96M
hashp=48M
cache=32M
ponder on
log off
swindle on
learn 7
book on
show book
kibitz 1
exit
My PC is a pentium 2.4ghz (single CPU - 32 bit) with 1 gig of ram

Re: crafty game and log files
This is a bug which was confirmed by the author as I remember,I assume that it's Crafty 21.5.....
Even if you set the log to off,it will flode your winboard folder with these files....

Re: crafty game and log files
If you don't want any of the game or log files, it's possible to use Crafty's shell escape command to automatically delete them. Have a shell escape in the initialization file call a batch file to do a wildcard delete of the unwanted files.

Re: crafty game and log files
Have you tried with
as the first line of your crafty.rc?
Code: Select all
log=off

logpath=\RECYCLER [Re: game.xxx/log.xxx files]
My (admittedly inelegant/lazy) workaround for this was to redirect all that stuff to the Recycle Bin, via Crafty's logpath command line parameter. Eg:cooldalek (which is redundant, as all daleks are cool) wrote:I am gettting huge numbers of game.00x and log.00x files in my winboard folder. My crafty rc file (win xp op system) is ... (snip)
Code: Select all
crafty tbpath=TB\3-4-5\;TB\tbs logpath=\RECYCLER
- *In Linux, you'd just set logpath=/dev/null, but I can't remember how to access the Win32 bit bucket. :(

When Winboarding, variations on the following batch file work fine on my (comparable) system:
Code: Select all
