Hello gnutix,

Could I please add more questions to the FAQ list:

- Is it possible to use some gnuchessx options together (within)
  XBOARD?  There is an "initString", which can even be modified
  within the source code (xboard.c), however, I could not make
  it work with other options, like adding the book file.
  Also, the gnuchessx itself did not accept these options:

  For instance when I say gnuchessx -a, it says bad time valuse,or
  something like this.  Could you please clarify the gnuchess options
  that can be entered with the initString?

  I would like to point out that I am using the versions:
 
	gnuchess-4.0.pl73 and
        xboard-3.1.pl1

	although yesterday I saw that a new patch (version?) 
        of XBOARD is put in the ftp site (Dec 10)

	prep.ai.mit.edu 
	xboard-3.2.pl0.tar.gz
  
  Thanks for your help and your valuable time,
  Best regards,
  Zuheyr Alsalihi

	PS: to answer a question I saw yesterday, unfortunately could not 
            save to answer:
 
	XBOARD by default looks for GNUCHESSX in the directory 
        defined by the environment variable CHESSDIR.
