Still in front of ( new? right?) A/C unit. 15:58:30 yes 15:58:56 I posted some chess stuff to the board late last night. 15:59:14 new a/c unit is nice :) 12k btu's; the house stays a cool 62-68 now 15:59:17 sorta to fill out the "Where's all the applications?" questions. 15:59:20 I saw it 15:59:22 okay. 15:59:29 excellent. 15:59:38 it's 106 here today. 15:59:42 * crc is happy that you are working on the chess game 16:00:02 * Raystm2_ is happy as well, that I suddenly seem to understand retroforth. 16:00:07 about 97 today 16:00:19 ya but what's your humidity? 16:00:28 --- nick: Raystm2_ -> Raystm2 16:00:41 45-50% 16:00:46 oh okay 16:01:07 it's atleast 97 in my bedroom :( 16:02:11 * Raystm2 has been dragging the book "Threaded Interpretive Languages" just about everywhere and I read stuff over and over. 16:03:01 When I compare what you've done to forth with retroforth and the cool-core, I'm certain you are breaking new ground. 16:04:19 our combined chess will put my chess to shame, I like that. :) 16:05:44 I would like to organize the chess as a backend/frontend approach 16:06:02 that way, the same logic code could run a text, gui, etc frontend 16:22:55 I see. 16:23:00 that's a great idea. 16:23:26 so far so good, as the display ui is really the text version. 16:23:36 currently. 16:23:59 there is no logic in that code save the display of the board array. 16:24:54 * Raystm2 just looking over the key-chord docl posted last night. Pretty neat, docl! 16:27:51 Something I picked up while making ChuckBot play chess: It's sometimes fun to watch the board move each piece in turn, for games that have several moves already saved. 16:28:26 I mean, rather then have it load with all the moves done so blazingly fast that all you see is the end result. 16:29:47 toggleing mvs to pause between moves would solve this.. But even neater would be if the pieces actually moved thru every square in the path from source to dest. 16:32:16 * Raystm2 needs to study TCP chess. 16:33:14 * Raystm2 needs to restart the irc client to fix a minor prob. brb 16:33:19 --- quit: Raystm2 ("Raystm2 has decided to ignore the entire internet, so sorry you had to he there.") 16:34:04 --- join: Raystm2 (n=Raystm2@adsl-69-149-43-76.dsl.rcsntx.swbell.net) joined #retro 16:34:58 ah that's better. :) 16:39:36 * Raystm2 notes that upgrading the input language to SAN ( standard Algebraic Notation -- of which b18chess is a subset) requires knowing how each piece moves, and this will facilitate making a piece march across the board thru all transient squares. 16:40:50 for instance the entry Nf3: this in the subset lang would be g1f3, but Nf3 is more descriptive. 16:42:51 so if you know how a Knight moves, 1 square forward and one square diagnal in the forward direction ( actually a little more complicated then that) ... 16:43:35 you can take the Nf3 to mean: Find a Knight one night move away from f3 and move that Knight to f3. 16:45:58 so the source of moves becomes a calculation from what you know about the destination and the way the called piece moves. 16:47:39 hmm, seems like all pieces move in some combination related to the bishops and rooks. 16:51:36 well that's not exactly right, every piece moves in some subset of the kings moves 17:05:51 http://www.very-best.de/pgn-spec.htm Cool chess spec page that I think I will try to conform to. 17:07:34 --- join: nighty_ (n=nighty@66-163-28-100.ip.tor.radiant.net) joined #retro 17:20:00 --- quit: crc (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) 17:27:17 --- quit: nighty (Read error: 113 (No route to host)) 18:40:03 --- join: crc (n=crc@pool-151-197-229-145.phil.east.verizon.net) joined #retro 18:40:12 --- mode: ChanServ set +o crc 18:44:53 --- join: WilliamGates (n=noban@160.Red-81-40-190.staticIP.rima-tde.net) joined #retro 18:45:02 --- part: WilliamGates left #retro 18:45:05 --- join: WilliamGates (n=noban@160.Red-81-40-190.staticIP.rima-tde.net) joined #retro 18:45:16 --- part: WilliamGates left #retro 18:47:14 Raystm2: glad ya liked it :) 19:31:43 --- join: snoopy_1711 (i=snoopy_1@dslb-084-058-142-035.pools.arcor-ip.net) joined #retro 19:39:14 --- quit: Snoopy42 (Read error: 145 (Connection timed out)) 19:39:16 --- nick: snoopy_1711 -> Snoopy42 23:52:54 --- join: virl (n=blah@vie-086-059-017-074.dsl.sil.at) joined #retro 23:52:59 hiho.. 23:59:59 --- log: ended retro/06.07.18
