Hiya. I know that this problem is mentioned in the 
Gnu Chess FAQ, but it doesn't seem to be actually 
answered or documented in detail.

I was wondering if anyone had any insight on a fix, 
or where I could look for a fix, etc.

The program compiles fine, but as soon as it is 
run, it displays"

GNU Chess
Version 5.00 (Octomber 15, 1999)

"and promptly crashes. Characters are echoed to 
the screen, but commands don't actually go anywhere.

Any insight would be appreciated,

sincerely,

John O'Brien

p.s. I apologize beforehand if this is the 
inappropriate user group.
