It offers enhanced features including multiple customizable stone colors, automatic numbering systems, geometric transformations, flexible board display options with enhanced borders, and full LuaLaTeX compatibility. \end{abstract} \tableofcontents \section{Introduction} Go is an ancient board game played on a grid of lines. Creating clear, professional diagrams for Go positions is essential for books, articles, and educational materials. The \pkg{eigo} package (Enhanced Igo) provides a modern, feature-rich solution for typesetting Go diagrams in \LaTeX. \subsection{Features} \begin{itemize} \item Full and partial board displays with automatic zone detection and enhanced borders \item Multiple stone colors (black, white, red, blue, green) with full customization \item Two additional custom colors (customone, customtwo) with dedicated commands \item Stone numbering with flexible automatic sequences \item Symbol placement (geometric shapes and custom text) \item Geometric transformations (rotations, mirrors, color swapping) \item Flexible sizing from tiny to massive boards with validation \item Coordinate display with customizable formatting \item Multiple board support for variations \item LuaLaTeX compatibility with proper UTF-8 handling \item Enhanced border display for complete board diagrams \end{itemize} \subsection{Requirements} \begin{itemize} \item Modern \LaTeX\ distribution (TeX Live 2020+ recommended) \item TikZ package (for graphics) \item xcolor package (for colors) \item Optional: LuaLaTeX for best UTF-8 support \end{itemize} \section{Package Options} The \pkg{eigo} package accepts several options to customize its behavior: \begin{longtable}{ll} \toprule \textbf{Option} & \textbf{Description} \\ \midrule \opt{color} & Enable colored stones and backgrounds (default) \\ \opt{bw} & Black and white mode only \\ \opt{frame} & Show board frame and background with enhanced borders \\ \opt{noframe} & Hide board frame and background (default) \\ \opt{coords} & Show coordinate labels \\ \opt{nocoords} & Hide coordinate labels (default) \\ \opt{debug} & Enable debug output \\ \bottomrule \end{longtable} Example usage: \begin{verbatim} \usepackage[frame,coords]{eigo} \end{verbatim} \section{Basic Usage} \subsection{Board Setup} The default board size is 19×19, but you can change it: \begin{verbatim} \gobansize{19} % Standard board \gobansize{13} % Smaller board \gobansize{9} % Beginner board \end{verbatim} \subsection{Placing Stones} Basic stone placement uses coordinate notation (letter + number): \begin{verbatim} \blackstones{d4,k10,q16} \whitestones{d16,k4,q4} \end{verbatim} \cleargoban \blackstones{d4,k10,q16} \whitestones{d16,k4,q4} \begin{center} \showgoban[a1,s10] \end{center} \subsection{Displaying Boards} Show the complete board with enhanced borders: \begin{verbatim} \showfullgoban \end{verbatim} Show a specific zone: \begin{verbatim} \showgoban[c3,m11] % Rectangle from c3 to m11 \showgoban[k10] % 5x5 area around k10 \end{verbatim} \section{Stone Colors and Customization} \subsection{Available Colors} The package supports seven stone colors: \begin{itemize} \item \cs{blackstones}\{positions\} \item \cs{whitestones}\{positions\} \item \cs{redstones}\{positions\} \item \cs{bluestones}\{positions\} \item \cs{greenstones}\{positions\} \item \cs{customonestones}\{positions\} -- Custom color 1 (default: purple) \item \cs{customtwostones}\{positions\} -- Custom color 2 (default: orange) \end{itemize} \subsection{Color Customization} You can customize all stone colors using RGB values: \begin{verbatim} \eigoblackcolor{0,0,0} % Standard black \eigowhitecolor{255,255,255} % Standard white \eigoredcolor{200,0,0} % Dark red \eigobluecolor{0,0,200} % Dark blue \eigogreencolor{0,150,0} % Dark green \eigocustomonecolor{128,0,128} % Purple (default) \eigocustomtwocolor{255,165,0} % Orange (default) \end{verbatim} Example

skipping positions by using dashes: \begin{verbatim} \autoblackfirst[1]{d4,-,e4,e5} % Skip d5, continues numbering \end{verbatim} \cleargoban \autoblackfirst[1]{d4,-,e4,e5} \begin{center} \showgoban[d4] \end{center} \subsubsection{Monochrome Sequences} For same-color sequences with increment of 2: \begin{verbatim} \blackn[1]{d4,e4,f4} % Numbers: 1,3,5 \whiten[2]{d5,e5,f5} % Numbers: 2,4,6 \end{verbatim} \cleargoban \blackn[1]{d4,e4,f4} \whiten[2]{d5,e5,f5} \begin{center} \showgoban[d4] \end{center} \section{Symbols and Markup} \subsection{Geometric Symbols} Place symbols on empty

intersection \hugegoban % 16mm per intersection \massivegoban % 20mm per intersection \end{verbatim} \subsection{Custom Sizing with Validation} Set exact unit size with automatic validation: \begin{verbatim} \eigounitsize{10mm} \end{verbatim} The package will issue warnings for very small (<2mm) or very large (>20mm) unit sizes. Get current size information: \begin{verbatim} Current unit size: \theeigountisize Size information: \eigosizeinfo \end{verbatim} Current unit size: \theeigountisize \eigosizeinfo \section{Multiple Boards} Work with multiple board positions simultaneously: \begin{verbatim} \usegoban{1} \blackstones{d4,k10} \usegoban{2} \blackstones{d4,k10,q16} \whitestones{d16} \usegoban{1} % Switch back to

line move % Variation \usegoban{2} \eigocustomtwocolor{100,0,100} % Dark purple \blackstones{d4,k10} \whitestones{d10,k4} \customtwostones[1]{q4} % Variation move \end{verbatim} \section{Package Implementation} \subsection{Internal Storage} The package uses a sophisticated storage system to handle: \begin{itemize} \item Stone colors and positions with full customization support \item Stone numbers \item Symbols and markup \item Multiple board states with independent color settings \end{itemize} \subsection{Enhanced Border System} The enhanced border system provides: \begin{itemize} \item Configurable border width (\cs{eigo@border@width}, default 2pt) \item Automatic detection of full vs partial board display \item Smart background color management based on frame and color options \item Professional appearance for publication-quality diagrams \end{itemize} \subsection{Color Management} The color system includes: \begin{itemize} \item Seven distinct stone colors with full RGB customization \item Dynamic color redefinition during document processing \item Color mode switching (color/bw) with proper fallbacks \item Default color palettes optimized for readability \end{itemize} \subsection{LuaLaTeX Compatibility} The package includes enhanced LuaLaTeX support: \begin{itemize} \item UTF-8 character definitions with \cs{newunicodechar} \item Proper font encoding detection and handling \item Compatibility with luatex85 for older LuaTeX versions \item Robust handling of special characters in all engines \end{itemize} \section{Troubleshooting} \subsection{Common Issues} \textbf{Stones not appearing:} Check position notation (no 'i' in columns). \textbf{Colors not changing:} Ensure color commands are called before stone placement. \textbf{Board too large/small:} Use size commands or \cs{eigounitsize} with validation. \textbf{Borders not showing:} Enable frame mode with \cs{eigoframe} and use full board display. \textbf{Custom colors reverting:} Color changes affect subsequent stone placements only. \textbf{UTF-8 errors:} Use LuaLaTeX for best compatibility or ensure proper input encoding. \subsection{Debug Mode} Enable debug output for troubleshooting: \begin{verbatim} \usepackage[debug]{eigo} \end{verbatim} This provides detailed console output about: \begin{itemize} \item Position parsing and validation \item Board operations and transformations \item Color definitions and changes \item Size validation warnings \item Zone detection and rendering \end{itemize} \section{Comparison with Other Packages}
