Tsumego (go problems) practice tool
uligo
To get stronger at go, it is essential to develop one's reading ability. That is why professionals recommend to study life and death or tesuji problems. uliGo is a program that allows you to do that: basically, the computer displays a problem, and asks for the answer. You enter the first move, the computer responds, and so on until you reach the final solution or enter a wrong move.
The basic operation of uliGo is simple. Click the right arrow to view a problem, and then click where you think the right answer is. The Documentation item in the Help menu contains the full documentation for uliGo, such as configuring the timer or the order the tsumego are displayed in.
By default, problems are presented in random order, with the colors and orientation of the problem randomly chosen.
This directory stores information about how many problems you've solved, and SGF files you've downloaded yourself.
