No need for manual settings any more. Just download, unzip to a folder of your choice and start the Nibbler binary.

If this is your first start, Nibbler will probably not find the Lc0 engine and your weights file.

• In this case, you notice a blue message "Engine not found...". Just open the menu entry Engine and click "Choose weights file..." and/or "Choose engine...".

Board and font size can now be changed with the menu entry Sizes. Your changes get saved.

Some further info:

Nibbler will now create config.json for you, and (under Linux) it will be saved in ~/.config/Nibbler. From Nibbler you can set some of the preferences in config.json. It does not appear that you can set many of Lc0's parameters, so these need to be added manually to config.json or placed in your lc0.config file.

I would appreciate if you could foreward/post my suggestions on his Github.

Thanks again and I am waiting for your next macOS release of Nibbler-:)

Nibbler

Nibbler is a real-time analysis GUI for Leela Chess Zero (Lc0), which runs Leela in the background and constantly displays opinions about the current position. You can also compel the engine to evaluate one or more specific moves. Nibbler is loosely inspired by Lizzie.

fohristiwhirl commented on 20 Jun •

It's mostly for Lc0. Another UCI engine should at least run, but various things about the display will be off. In addition, to get more info from the engine, we send a command to the engine (MultiPV 500) which, as a side-effect, weakens non-NN engines.

You can already change the screensize yourself in the still existing but hidden config.json.
No idea though where apps hide user profiles on a Mac. You should know this though.

He might be able to determine the location of the file using Nibbler's menu: App --> Show config.json. I suppose macOS needs special prompting to show "hidden" files.

It seems the old config option of max lines to display isn't valid anymore and it will always show 20 max lines now.
Using 'Top move only' does not work here and there seems to be no other option to shrink the number of displayed lines?

if (typeof config.max_info_lines === "number" && config.max_info_lines > 0) {		// Hidden option, request of rwbc
			info_list = info_list.slice(0, config.max_info_lines);
}
