Games::Go::Sgf2Dg::Dg2Mp - Perl extension to convert
Games::Go::Sgf2Dg::Diagrams to John Hobby's MetaPost (which is adapted from
Donald Knuth's Metafont).
use Games::Go::Sgf2Dg::Dg2Mp
my $dg2mp = B<Games::Go::Sgf2Dg::Dg2Mp-E<gt>new> (options);
$dg2mp->convertDiagram($diagram);
A Games::Go::Sgf2Dg::Dg2Mp object converts a
Games::Go::Sgf2Dg::Diagram object into a TeX (.tex) and a MetaPost (.mp)
file. The MetaPost file contains figures for each of the diagrams and
overstones required to make the complete game diagram. Running MetaPost
(mpost or possibly mp) on the .mp file creates a set of figure files, each
of which is an Encapsulated PostScript figure. Running TeX (tex) on the .tex
file creates a .dvi file which tries to include the Encapsulated PostScript
figures. Running dvips on the .dvi file (from TeX) creates the final
PostScript (.ps) file containing the complete game diagram.
See 'man mpost' (or possibly 'man 'mp') for more details of the
overall MetaPost system and environment.
- my $dg2mp =
Games::Go::Sgf2Dg::Dg2Mp->new (?options?)
- A new Games::Go::Sgf2Dg::Dg2Mp takes the following options:
- boardSizeX
=> number
- boardSizeY
=> number
- Sets the size of the board.
Default: 19
- doubleDigits
=> true | false
- Numbers on stones are wrapped back to 1 after they reach 100. Numbers
associated with comments and diagram titles are not affected.
Default: false
- stone_width
=> points
- stone_height
=> points
- The stone_width and stone_height determine the size of the
stones and diagrams.
If stone_width is not explicitly set, it is calculated
from the stone_fontSize to allow up to three digits on a stone .
The default stone_fontSize allows for three diagrams (with
-coords) per 'letter' page if comments don't take up extra space below
diagrams. If doubleDigits is specified, the stones and board are
slightly smaller (stone 100 may look a bit cramped).
If stone_height is not explicitly set, it will be 1.05
* stone_width, creating a slightly rectangular diagram.
Default: undef - determined from stone_fontSize
- coords => true |
false
- Generates a coordinate grid.
Default: false
- topLine =>
number (Default: 1)
- bottomLine
=> number (Default: 19)
- leftLine =>
number (Default: 1)
- rightLine
=> number (Default: 19)
- The edges of the board that should be displayed. Any portion of the board
that extends beyond these numbers is not included in the output.
- diaCoords
=> sub { # convert $x, $y to Diagram coordinates }
- This callback defines a subroutine to convert coordinates from
$x, $y to whatever
coordinates are used in the Games::Go::Sgf2Dg::Diagram object. The default
diaCoords converts 1-based $x,
$y to the same coordinates used in SGF format
files. You only need to define this if you're using a different coordinate
system in the Diagram.
Default:
sub { my ($x, $y) = @_;
$x = chr($x - 1 + ord('a')); # convert 1 to 'a', etc
$y = chr($y - 1 + ord('a'));
return("$x$y"); }, # concatenate two letters
See also the diaCoords method below.
- print => sub { my
($dg2mp, @tex) = @_; ... }
- A user defined subroutine to replace the default printing method. This
callback is called from the print method (below) with the reference
to the Dg2Mp object and a list of lines that are part of the TeX
diagram source.
- stone_fontName
=> 'font' Default: 'cmssbx10'
- Quoting from the discussion on fonts in section 7 of _A User's Manual for
MetaPost_ (by John D. Hobby):
"...the new font name should be something that TEX would
understand since MetaPost gets height and width information by reading
the tfm file. (This is explained in The TEXbook. [5] ) It should be
possible to use built-in PostScript fonts, but the names for them are
system-dependent. Some systems may use rptmr or ps-times-roman instead
of Times-Roman. A TEX font such as cmr10 is a little dangerous because
it does not have a space character or certain ASCII symbols. In
addition, MetaPost does not use the ligatures and kerning information
that comes with a TEX font."
- stone_fontSize
=> points
- The stone_fontSize determines the size of the stones and diagrams. Stone
size is chosen to allow up to three digits on a stone.
If doubleDigits is specified, the stones and board are
slightly smaller (stone 100 may look a bit cramped).
Default: 8
- $dg2mp->configure (option => value, ?...?)
- Change Dg2Mp options from values passed at new time.
- my $coord =
$dg2mp->diaCoords ($x, $y)
- Provides access to the diaCoords option (see above). Returns
coordinates in the converter's coordinate system for board coordinates
($x, $y). For example, to get a specific
intersection structure:
my $int = $diagram->get($dg2mp->diaCoords(3, 4));
- $dg2mp->print ($tex ? , ... ?)
- prints raw TeX code to file as defined at new time.
Whether or not file was defined, print accumulates the TeX
code for later retrieval with converted. The TeX output filename is
derived from the MetaPost filename by changing the .mp extension to
.tex.
- $dg2mp->print ($tex ? , ... ?)
- prints raw MetaPost code to MetaPost output file (as defined at
->new or ->configure time).
- my $tex =
$dg2mp->converted ($replacement_tex)
- Returns the TeX source code converted so far for the Dg2Mp object.
If $replacement_tex is defined, the accumulated
TeX source code is replaced by
$replacement_tex.
- $dg2mp->comment ($comment ? , ... ?)
- Inserts the TeX comment character ('%') in front of each line of each
comment and prints it to file.
- my $tex_source =
$dg2mp->convertDiagram ($diagram)
- Converts a Games::Go::Sgf2Dg::Diagram into TeX/MetaPost. If
file was defined in the new method, the TeX source is dumped
into the file.tex and the MetaPost source into file.mp. In
any case, the TeX source is returned as a string scalar.
- my $tex =
$dg2mp->convertText ($text)
- Converts $text into TeX code by changing certain
characters that are not available in TeX cmr10 font, and by converting
\n\n into \hfil\break. convertText behavior is modified by
texComments and simple options.
Returns the converted text.
- $dg2mp->close
- print the TeX closer (\bye) and close the dg2mp object. Also closes
file if appropriate.
Is this a trick question?
