I am using Linux 1.2.13 (Slackware Linux ver 3.0) and gnuchess loads, but I 
can't get the program to respond to moves.  I've been typing the standard 
algebraic notation, e.g., d2-4, but it reports back illegal move.  I'm 
sorry that I'm such a newbie at this, but I'd appreciate if someone could 
email me at 
		htmaher@airmail.net
with some help.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
