gGo 0.3.6pre4 comes with support for multiple games. This is important as
the default value for toggle singlegame changed to Off on the new server, as
mentioned in earlier games. As gGo did not support the slightly changed
messages of singlegame Off, it appeared the client is suddenly broken (well,
lack of feature, admittedly).

gGo should now be able to play multiple games. But this just calls for some
problems, so I would appreciate if you could test multiple games a bit.
Having one dummy game open while playing a real one is good enough, the
dummy game can be a teaching game, too.

Note: Undo and handicap does *not* work in multiple games, but this is an
IGS bug.

Playing in game 123 (plus another one):

handicap 4
You need to specify the game number

handicap 123 4
Handicap must be between 2 and 9

handicap 4 123
You dont play in game 4

Doh ho...


It works for Komi, oddly. :)
komi 123 6.5 -> okay

undo 123 just fails with some strange error message from IGS.


Pre4 should finally fix the match dialog issue (urgh) and blocks the
scrolling when you have the scrollbar selected with the mouse (does not
matter where the scroll view is, easiest way was to check for mouse
selection), to adress earlier suggestions.

 Peter
