#
#  The Owl offensive pattern database.
#
#  Further documentation may be found in the Texinfo documentation.
#
#  First there is a pattern title of the form: Pattern [string]. The
#  string is used for identifying the pattern while tuning or debugging.
#
#  Then a block of the following characters representing the pattern
#  itself.
#  
#  ?     : don't care
#  .     : empty
#  X     : your piece,
#  O     : my piece,
#  x     : your piece or empty
#  o     : my piece or empty
#  *     : my next move
#  -, |  : edge of board
#  +     : corner of board
#
#  If a pattern must not match at the edge of the board,
#  an extra row of ?'s in the pattern may be added. (This
#  will not add to the time taken to check the pattern.)
#
#################
#
#  In the second field (classification) the following pattern attributes
#  are possible. Friendly stones are 'O', opponent stones are 'X'.
# 
# s  :  "Sacrifice" pattern. Omit the usual check that an O stone here
#       cannot be capture.
# 
# n  :  In addition to usual check that an O stone here cannot be
#       captured, check also that an X move cannot be captured.
# 
#################
#
#  'Y' is the anchor stone, a unique stone of color 'X' used by the pattern
#  matcher to find the pattern.
#
#################
# The patterns in this database are sorted into the following
# categories:
# 
# Axx   Limiting moves on the fourth line
# A1xx  Limiting moves on the third line
# A2xx  Limiting moves on the second line
# A3xx  Limiting moves on the first line
