For the way I use the program, probably best as another tab - below would eat into the space for the game list, and I don't need the history that often (especially given that there's now a "Back to previous search pattern" button.

Thanks for making and improving this porgram. It really is very useful, and the new fast search is quite amazing compared to the old one.

I have added a PIL avoidance option. I want to change a few more things before I issue a 0.7.1 release, but if you want to try whether it works, you can get a tar.gz file at



(This is an extract from the repository, so it does not contain the documentation in html form. And you have to run SWIG before python setup.py build_ext; but I guess you did that anyway.)

I hope that Mac OS is correctly recognized, so that PIL is disabled. If you still get the segfault, please try again after changing line 147 in src/default.cfg from use_PIL = auto to use_PIL = 0, and deleting src/kombilo.cfg (if it exists).

Best regards

Ulrich

Hi again,

quick good job! It works correctly (although I cheated and copied _libkombilo.so and libkombilo.py from my previous source tree, since I had already deleted the boost headers and it's a slow download). Btw, when changing versions do I need to re-created the database or does kombilo understand itself without problems (kombilo.db and friends are created in the SGF directory I have the database)?

That's great to hear! If you have time to write down some instructions on how to make it work on a Mac (especially installing the dependencies for compiling libkombilo), I will be very glad to add it to the documentation.



That's ok, there have been no changes to libkombilo.



The databases are not compatible between 0.5 and 0.7, so you have to recreate them. (In the 0.7.* line the format will remain the same.)

Best,

Ulrich
