A simple python script to organize games between usi_engines.

I made this script because all existing "engine_handlers" were for windows only.

• Linux
• Mac OS X
• Windows

• python
• json
• re
• pexpect
• multiprocessing not used anymore (deleted at 9e287e4b5445825be12589f02d00b47cbf870b3e)

• Basic USI engines support
• Byoyomi setting
• Save result as json
• Eval&Book files setting (by specifying the engine directory)
• Bonanza protocol support
• btime, wtime setting
• hash size setting
• ponder support
• number of threads setting ( Note: the option name differs on each engine. to implement, edit setOptions() function )

• example.py: example script to start a game with two engines.
• try in the interactive shell
