Hi,

Since there's a file src/Makefile.dos in the gnuchess-4.0pl755.tar.gz, I
was wondering if there might be a precompiled executable lying around
somewhere?  I've got Borland C++ rather than Microsoft C, so can't compile
it myself (I think that Makefile's for Microsoft - please correct me if
I'm wrong).

I'm aware that pl75 had a few bugs (documented in the FAQ) - would a
precompiled executable have been done after these were corrected?  Is pl77
out yet?

I want this for a blind DOS-user, so it needn't be anything too visual -
gnuchessr and maybe gnuchess would be great.  (Maybe I should just
persuade him to install Linux :-) .)

TIA,

Nikhil.
