This is a new feature request:
I have 2 versions of SMIRF (version 0 [standard] and version 2) I would
like to playtest against one another using SMIRF-o-glot and Winboard F.
Currently, it is impossible.
1. SMIRF-o-glot only executes the standard name of the SMIRF program.
2. SMIRF-o-glot requires the SMIRF program to be with it in the same
directory to work.
3. Winboard F requires SMIRF-o-glot to be with it in the same directory
to work.
4. Two seperate installations of Winboard F (having two different
versions of SMIRF) cannot communicate to work in coordination.
Manually playtesting 2 versions of SMIRF against one another (without
using Winboard F and SMIRF-o-glot) would probably take 2-3 times as long.
So, any solution that is not too labor-intensive for you, the programmer,
would be greatly appreciated.
