Stange isn't it? What program are you talking about? If you said that in a previous message, I (for one) didn't see it. If you're talking about gnuchessn, it uses the xterm foreground color as "black" and the xterm foreground color as "white". So if you run it on a terminal or terminal emulator that displays white-on-black, the square colors will be inverted. If you have X, I'd suggest using xboard as the front end to GNU Chess instead of running gnuchessn. If you aren't talking about GNU Chess, you have the wrong newsgroup. --Tim -- Tim Mann <mann@pa.dec.com>, Compaq Systems Research Center http://www.research.digital.com/SRC/personal/Tim_Mann/
