Instructions for RobboExplorative (Java GUI).

Compile RobboExplorative with javac, or thru Makefile in RobboExplorative folder.
Emerge RobboExplorative via "java" command: java RobboExplorative
For then, Click upon RobboExplorer to tell (file chooser) where RobboExplorer sits.
The same holds for TotalDirectory and TripleDirectory in their base.

These can be saved in RE.config to read upon start.
This is the example RE.config file.
=================
TotalDirectory /home/chess/RobboTotalBase/
TripleDirectory /home/chess/RobboTripleBase/
RobboExplorer /home/chess/IvanHoe-Beta-999950r/RobboExplorer
=================
Now see "java" know needs to where RE.config is too, in mandatory. The look is direct. The SAVE button does the save of RE.config for you now.
The right-click on the SAVE button brings up the InformPanel to say what files give each piece collection. This is for conformance.
Also: first loading is not immediate unless Bases are in disk cache. Apply patients. Progress notes in TextInfo box (lower left). The RobboExplorer button must turn Green to invite. See below to BlockIndex.

To use RobboExplorative click on pieces then click them on the board. We do not have drag and drop for expense.
The right-click (if so) of a piece will move it (jumping).
Example: click on WhiteQueen at bottom. Click on e5. Click on d3. Two queens now. Right-click on e5. Click on g8. WhiteQueen jumps e5 to g8.
Twice right-click is an other delete option. The first is empty square, from left of either pawn (black or white).

The White/Black indicator is on the left. The Clear board ("C") is on the upper left. The Yellow button in upper right calls RobboExplorer on data. The FEN button can also be pushed for input (validated).

So then, with TotalDirectory or TripleDirectory ready (even both) then click Yellow button with position on board. The responding data appear at right. Then too, moves are doubleclick-able or via up/down arrows plus Return (Enter). With TripleBases there is only three types but TotalBases will sort by length.

The M below the yellow button is to splice the mainline for the move list. Warning: this consumes time in instances.

The final convenience is Block indexing that accrues greater speed to load. This applies to power users and is easy to shoot your foot to Yakutsk if files find rearrangement.

The Bugs you find you can to say on IPPOLIT wiki.
