New Sacrifice Games Search Comfort tool is ready

Post by pohl4711 »

New Sacrifice Games Search Comfort Tool added to the SGS-tool download:

The Tool searches for a material advantage of at least 2 pawns for (at least) 4 consecutive moves for the color, which finally looses the game. When this is done, a second search is done: The tool searches for the exact move, where the sacrifice of a rook for a piece, a full piece, a full rook or a queen happens in the game. Finally a comment is written behind this sac-move in the pgn-notation. (All other comments are removed from the pgn-games). I made this second SGS-tool, because I got a lot of requests, if it would be possible to mark the sacs in the pgn-notation. It was very tricky, to do this, using pgn-extract, but now, it works. Read the ReadMe-file in the download, to learn more...
