I know of only one go game for computers. That is Weizenbaums go on MIT-MC. It is written in lisp. As a complete and blundering novice, I usually took it apart. That is not to put down the program, because it is a good program, but to point out the difficulty of the logic of playing. what I have been considering recently is a program that will referee a go game between one or more people (one if I am playing by mail and want to record and store moves on line, 2 to play, three with a watcher, etc...). That has also been done by Robert Maas at MIT-MC in Lisp, but I have not really done too much on it because I am waiting for 4.2 and IPC because getting two terminals to talk on 4.1 nicely is a real pain...
