[net.chess] Info request

jwp (09/01/82)

I seem to remember that ages ago (i.e. 1977-78) there was a program that
allowed you to edit and/or add to /usr/lib/book (the opening book for the chess
program).  Did this really exist or is it just a wishful figment of my
imagination? If it did exist, does it still?  Can I get a copy from somewhere?

Also,  has chess-by-mail been tried on the net?  Does anyone have any interest
in trying it?
