Post subject: Tool to capture UCI chess engine exchanges? Archived from groups: rec>games>chess>computer, others (more info?)
|

|
I want to write a UCI chess engine that plays badly enough for me to
beat it, and then improve it as my game improves (this is mostly for
fun, I know that many already exist). The UCI documentation I've
found on the net is pretty terse, and it would help a lot if I could
read a log of the actual communication between Fritz and a UCI engine
I've already installed. I know they communicate by stdin and stdout,
using readable English words, but I don't know how to capture it --- I
looked at the SysInternals suite and they have monitors for registry
and file access, but as far as I can tell they don't show the actual
strings exchanged, or monitor stdin and stdout.
Does anyone know of a tool, preferably free, that does this? Thanks. |

You could try InBetween found on this page http://utilities.sjakk.biz/ .
You can see the communication and/or capture it to a logfile.

I found the documentation readable enough to implement it.
Just use Arena instead of Fritz, is has a debug window (under Engines)
in which you can see the whole communication, copy it to clipboard and
send your own commands to the engine.
