Hi all,

I recently looked at gnuchess pl 74? on unix and I liked it very much. I would
like to be able to run it on my own PC at home. Since that is only a 286 it
is not possible for me to use the gcc compiler. Is it possible in another
way to get gnuchess running on my machine? I have access to a 486 with a
WatCom C-compiler at work, but is it possible to generate 286-code??

Another question: I got gnuchess from ftp.uwasa.fi, but where can I get
the FAQ??

Thanks in advance,
