Smart Go Format (SGF) is a file format used to store game records of two player board games. This module used to collect tournament information from a set of SGF files and produce statistic HTML tables for creating WWW tournament pages.

DIAGNOSTICS

Can't open given sgf_dir for reading. Probably it doesn't exist or have inappropriate permissions, see OS error message.

None reported.
BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
No bugs have been reported.
Class is tested only on the game of Go. Suggestions about other games are welcome, and especially about ties processing.
If two or more players have same score, they position will be unpredictable. Usually, such a problem on tournaments have to be resolved with the help of other methods os scoring: SOS and so on. That is not implemented yet.
This is my very first object-oriented Perl module, and i will appreciate any suggestions about OO-style.
Please report any bugs or feature requests through the web interface at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=143987.
