[computer-go] CGOS

[Joshua Shriver]

How do you interface with CGOS exactly? Rather what specifically needs
to be implemented to play? I believe from what I've read it uses a GTP
hook-in program, so is GTP sufficient, what about SGF?

I'm anxious to get my engine online.

Thanks for your time,
Josh
