Hi,

I would *love* to try gnuan to analyse some of my games, but I have a
problem which I hope someone could perhaps solve for me.

gnuan expects algebraic moves like 1. e2e4 e7e5, it says in the
documentation. Now say I've played a game using Xboard, and saved it,
it is in the format: 1. e4 e5. The 'short' format. Gnuan can't eat
that, it seems.

Now how can I analyse my Xboard games using gnuan? Do I really have to
change the game file by hand (an awful lot of work...).

Are there for instance programs that change the short notation in the
explicit algebraic notation? 

I have tried to find this in the faq, but couldn't find it. 

Thanks in advance for any help

Jan-Peter
