v1.01 has just been released (use the same download link you got in your original email; the installer will upgrade your version), which thankfully makes analysis significantly less painful. I've updated the post at the top of the thread.

I actually have Crazy Stone 2012 (lol). Could you explain ...

I've got "This is Haengma." I suppose it occupies ground between the two books you listed. The structure of the first half is something like: State theoretical point, a couple of simple examples, an example from a pro position. The second half is discussion of shapes from games.

Of my 56 tournament opponents accd to egd, 11 were women.

Is it qualitatively different than tapping your fingers with each stone you place mentally? All strong Chinese players do that, and I have picked up the habit.

Very old thread, but I have been practicing my reading a lot lately and find myself involuntarily sort of tapping or wiggling my fingers ...
