DEFINITION OF THE SMART-GO FORMAT?From the Dissertation of Anders Kierulf?Smart Game Board:?a Workbench for Game-Playing?Programs, with Go and Othello?as Case Studies?Entered by Greg Hale with permission for distribution.

The following descriptionis not a new proposal; it is intended for those who want to read or?white files that are compatible with the Smart Game Board.?The game collections (documents) of the Smart Game Board are stored astext files.??
