Return-Path: <phr@prep.ai.mit.edu> Date: Fri, 25 Nov 88 20:18:29 EST From: phr@prep.ai.mit.edu (Paul Rubin) To: gnu@prep.ai.mit.edu Subject: gnu chess updated At Stuart Cracraft's request, I have updated the /u/emacs/gnuchess.tar.Z file on prep to his current version ftp'd from venera.isi.edu. The old version is now in gnuchess.tar.Z-Nov88. The new version has X11 display support that is supposed to actually work (I haven't tested it) but no X10 support. The old version had X10 support that was too buggy to use, so the lack of X10 support in the new version does not really screw X10 users. If somebody wants to make a version with working X10 support, it is probably easier to hack the new version from X11 than to debug the old version.

Is it tar xf gnuchess.tar.Z?? I keep getting a checksum error when I do that! Thanks, Doug-- "You're an animal" "No, worse...HUMAN" Doug Gray dugal@stanford.edu
