I have compiled gnuchess for use at our site and although it has some very nice features, there are some things about it that bother me a little. 1) If you type in a move incorrectly, you can't backspace over it (neither the backspace key nor the delete key print anything coherent.) Is it just our system or is this a universal problem. I can't play the fastest time control with the thing because I make too many mistakes to get the typing done on time! 2) If you undo a move, the times don't seem to reset themselves, and I'm not sure if there's a strict adherence to the time controls in the game. Does someone know what the deal with these is? These problems don't *seem* too tough to fix, I'd try them myself but I've got plenty of other stuff backed up in the "to do" pile, then again, who doesn't. -- Nick Christenson christnp@thor.acc.stolaf.edu christnp@stolaf.UUCP
