[comp.sys.amiga] Chess program from uihub

gaspar@stl-08sima.army.mil (Al Gaspar) (08/08/89)

    I recently downloaded a program called 'Chess' from uihub.cs.uiuc.edu
(128.174.252.27).  The program was in the /pub/amiga/cucug/cucug020 directory
in the file chess.zoo.  It downloaded without any problems, and I had no
problems 'unzooing' it.  However, when I try to run it (I tried it both from
the shell and workbench), it came up with all of its menu items shadowed so
that they could not be selected, and you couldn't kill the program.  I was
able to put the program into the background, but that was it.  I could not
find any clues to what I am doing wrong in the documentation.  Does anyone
have any ideas as to what is wrong?  I appreciate any help.

Cheers--
