The subheadings under this menu option allow you to save the game progression from the initial state until the current state in a text format, which you can then transfer to another computer or another application. It also allows you to save the current picture of the board as a BMP file. There are three different formats available for you to choose from:
(i). <BD><SIZE=12><COL=RED>Board BMP<NM>
Save the current picture of the board as a BMP file. The saved picture is identical to the one currently showing in the <BD>Strategram</BD> window, therefore you can control the appearance via the <BD>Preferences</BD> and <BD>Settings</BD> dialogs.
(ii). <BD><SIZE=12><COL=RED>Move History<NM>
This format enumerates the move list for the entire game in a text fashion. Moves made by the White player are always preceded by an odd positive number representing the relevant move number; followed by Black's response as an even numbered move. Each move reads from left to right as: From Row c, Column 3 To -<GT> Row c, Column 4, which is equivalent to: c3-c4.
This coordinate notation corresponds to the current orientation setting and therefore is identical to the move information that appear elsewhere, e.g. <BD>Info</BD> window, <BD>Legal Moves</BD> window, <BD>List Moves</BD> window, etc.
Example:
White Black
1. c3-c4 2. f7-e7
3. c2-d2 4. g8-e6
5. b2-d4 6. h7-f5
7. b1-d5 8. g7-c3
9. c4-c5
(iii). <BD><SIZE=12><COL=RED>Game Progression<NM>
This format represents each board in the progression of the game as a textual snapshot of the board. Regardless of the current orientation setting, the game is always represented from bottom-left to top-right. The notation used interprets as:
White King = X, White Pawn = x,
Black King = 0, Black Pawn = o.
Transition between board states follows a left to right direction, as shown below:
