Not always a complete solution? Could you give examples? The only time I had
problems with it was when I tried to check a problem with Circe Parrain +
castling. (This is not implemented yet in Popeye).

The "GUI" frontend you mentioned can be found at
http://www.bigfoot.com/~velucchi/genpy.zip. There are some more frontends at
ftp://ftp.leo.org/pub/rec/games/popeye/binary/shells
