generate hands for duplicate bridge
Hands is a program to generate bridge hands for a duplicate game. The
program writes output to the terminal ("Standard out") which may be
redirected to a file or a printer. The output is suitable for printing on
8 1/2 x 11 inch pages using any fixed-pitch font at 12 characters per inch,
such as 10-point Courier, or for redirection to any Postcript printer or
compatible interpreter.
Sjeng is an attempt to create a bughouse- and crazyhouse-playing program
that can attain a level comparable to what the best human players are capable
of. Sjeng also can play standard, suicide, giveaway and losers chess.
redefines about which buildlink.mk files would care is BUILDLINK_X11_DIR,
which points to the location of the X11R6 hierarchy used during building.
If x11.buildlink.mk isn't included, then BUILDLINK_X11_DIR defaults to
${X11BASE} (set in bsd.pkg.mk), so its value is always safe to use. Remove
the ifdefs surrounding the use of BUILDLINK_X11_DIR in tk/buildlink.mk and
revert changes to move x11.buildlink.mk before the other buildlink.mk files.
use X11_BUILDLINK_MK as a test value. Generally just reordering the
inclusions so that x11.buildlink.mk comes before the other buildlink.mk
files will make everthing work.
version 18.10 include:
- the pawn ram code is now disabled when playing a computer, although the
normal 'blocked pawn' code is always active.
- bug in the code that penalizes a rook with no horizontal mobility was fixed.
if the first rook scored had horizontal mobility, the second rook appeared
to have this mobility as well, which was wrong.
- pawn hash statistics were wrong on longer searches due to an int overflow on
a multiply and divide calculation. this has been re-ordered to avoid the
overflow.
- for unknown reasons, epd support was disabled. it is now enabled as it
should be.
- bug in EvaluateDraws() fixed to not call KBB vs KN a draw if the correct
tablebase is not available.
- bishop pair scores now vary depending on how many pawns are left on the
board. a pair is not worth a lot if there are 7-8 pawns left as most
diagonals will be blocked by pawns.
- a new way of handling the search extensions is in place. with the old
approach, one ply could not extend more than one full ply. with the new
approach, borrowed from Deep Blue, two consecutive plies can not extend more
than two plies total. It averages out to be the same, of course, but the
effect is a bit different. Now it is possible for a check and recapture to
be applied at the same ply, where they could not before (since a check was
already a full one-ply extension). whether this is better or not is not
clear yet, but it is worth careful analysis.
With apologies to Al I wouldn't know where to start with a summary of the
changes between 2.1 and 2.2.1 - there are just too many. A couple of
hopefully static URLS that contain useful information are

Support for a.out for kde{libs,base} added by me. The libtool/a.out
combination doesn't like the linking of modules into binaries. A better
way of doing this will appear in future versions of KDE/pkgsrc.

foo-* to foo-[0-9]*. This is to cause the dependencies to match only the
packages whose base package name is "foo", and not those named "foo-bar".
A concrete example is p5-Net-* matching p5-Net-DNS as well as p5-Net. Also
change dependency examples in Packages.txt to reflect this.
Changes since 18.9:
minor bug in book.c would let crafty play lines that were very
rarely played even though there were others that had been played
far more times and were more reliable. king safety scores ramped
up a bit and made more "responsive".
Darrow <John.P.Darrow@wheaton.edu> in pkg/13264. Changes noted in the PR
were applied with some small changes to use FILES_SUBST/FILES_SUBST_SED
to unify the various substitution patterns for the *INSTALL files, and to
use ${CMP} instead of diff in the DEINSTALL file.
to ${X11BASE} in the header and library search paths into references to
${LOCALBASE}/share/x11-links. These packages should now be strongly-
buildlinked regardless of whether xpkgwedge is installed.
Changes well-tested on NetBSD-1.5X/i386 with and without xpkgwedge and
lightly-tested on NetBSD-1.5.1/alpha without xpkgwedge.
Include a bugfix for lisp_LISP independently discovered by me that has
been pulled up to the automake-1-4 branch of automake cvs.
Changes are:
New in 1.4-p5:
* Allow AM_PROG_LIBTOOL again.
* Diagnose AC_CONFIG_HEADERS the same as AC_CONFIG_HEADER.
* Display distributed file list correctly in usage message.
* Allow numbers in macro names.
* Bugfixes.
New in 1.4-p4:
* Deal with configure.ac as well as configure.in -- this time for real!
* The version numbering system now allows three point version numbers,
such as 1.4.4, without thinking they are alpha release numbers.
New in 1.4-p3:
* Deal with configure.ac as well as configure.in.
* Don't complain if `version.texi' is included in multiple places.
New in 1.4-p2:
* Deal with AC_CONFIG_FILES from autoconf-2.50.
* Improvements to f77 support.
* DESTDIR now works for script targets.
* distcheck-hook works correctly.
New in 1.4-p1:
* The version numbering system now allows fork identifiers (such as
the p1 in this version of automake).
* Cope gracefully with various versions of libtool which may or may not
require ltconfig, ltcf-c.sh, ltcf-cxx.sh or ltcf-gcj.sh.
* Bugfixes.
