** Announcing the release of XBoard and WinBoard, version 4.2.5 **

A new release of both XBoard and WinBoard is now available.  Version
4.2.5 corrects a few bugs in the 4.2.4 release.  In addition, the
precompiled GNU Chess 5.02 that is bundled in the WinBoard 4.2.5
distribution includes a much smaller book and defaults to using much
less memory for hash tables.  This makes the download smaller and
makes GNU Chess 5 runnable on computers with less memory.  The large
book is now available from http://www.tim-mann.org/gnuchess.html as a
separate download for those who would like it.

Several new features contributed by various people are still in the
pipeline for a future release, as are several additions to the engine
communication protocol that have been discussed on the chess-engines
mailing list but which I have not implemented yet.  I wanted to work
through my large backlog of small bug reports and fixes before moving
on to these larger items.

You can get both programs from my Chess page on the World Wide Web.
In addition, they should soon be available from GNU FTP sites.

XBoard is a graphical chessboard for the X Window System that can
serve as a user interface for GNU Chess, Crafty, and other chess
engines, for the Internet Chess Servers, and for electronic mail
correspondence chess.  XBoard can also be used by itself.  It can read
and write game files in PGN (portable game notation).

WinBoard is a similar program for 32-bit Microsoft Windows.  It
includes all the major features of XBoard except email correspondence
chess.

Some known bugs and deficiencies in previous versions have not been
addressed.  It is not necessary to report your favorite bug again if
you have reported it before, unless the ChangeLog erroneously says it
has been fixed.  Most known bugs, deficiencies, and suggestions
received are now listed in the ToDo file.  If you find a bug not
listed there, please report it to me.
