My old Windows Bitboard Observer Bibob is available on a cpw page for download. If you have the ancient MS VC6, project with sources included, PD.

Hello, Gerd,

first thx for this nice tool. I remember it from an earlier thread some time
ago. Is it possible to create some pattern files with this tool,
pawn structures, shield configurations,center types and so on.

I can imagine to do some useful things with such a tool.

Anyway, using it for visualization and debugging purposes is already
a very good thing.

cheers,

Michael

Hello Gerd.

that's an awesome tool. Bitboardbeobachter, eh? Many thanks for sharing it.

I'm very much looking forward to using it. Up until now I always made do with the programmer view of Windows' calc.exe and primitive debug outputs... :roll:

Is was quite helpful to visualize Kindergarten Bitboards.

When I implemented the (still a bit buggy) auto repeater for the last binary operation with adjustable speed, the intention was to implement a small programming language, i.e. to animate fill-algos etc., operands (Variables) are represented by BB-document windows.

Cheers,
Gerd

English and German appear compatible on this one, despite different word roots :lol:
