[gnugo-devel] Pattern for seki (bug 175)

[Joseph Piche]

I created a regression test for bug 175 (the patch is in trac). Then I started looking at the pattern code after reading the documentation. It was difficult for me to try and understand how to generate a pattern, so I wanted to have someone else look at this and see if I got everything right. I was also wondering where the code for defending against a seki would go; right after it in S16? One more thing is that after re-compiling with this new pattern, gnugo passes after white responds (typically C2 or C1); is there something else I need to do to let gnugo know how to finish the invasion?

Pattern S15
# 9 point gote seki. see seki:2101
