Changes in version 0.15.2 from 0.15.1

- Regenerate Makefile.in. Report and patch from Ernani Azevedo.
Changes:
The GTP frontend was improved. Beginning a game from grhino-setup_board with
black or white as the first move is allowed, and a grhino-show_history command
was introduced. Changes from Fedora Extras 5 and NetBSD ports were merged.
Changes in version 0.15.0 from 0.14.0

- Change default AI level to 2.

- Add driver to play two GTP against each other via 'aiai' executable.
It is still not user friendly. You must modify 'cmd_black' and
'cmd_white' in the source code and build via 'make aiai' to try
different AI parameters. Use 'aiai --help' to list all command
line options.
- Reduce race condition modifying game log.
- Avoid wipe out during AI midgame evaluation.
Changes in version 0.14.0 from 0.13.0
-------------------------------------

and game server support. It is tested with Quarry. Only 8x8
and no time limit games are supported. Use 'gtp-rhino --help'
to list all command line options.

--enable-gtp (also enabled by default).

GRhino, or Rhino its former name, is an Othello/Reversi game.
What distinguish GRhino from most other Othello games is that
GRhino will be targeted for experienced Othello players.
Strong AI is the main focus with some additional good, useful
features (like an endgame solver) is planned. The ultimate
target strength of the AI is that it should be able to beat
the best human player at the highest difficulty level.
