>[report of an illegal move by gnuchess] That's because the new move generator in gnuchess 1.53 is buggy. It's faster than the old one, but it doesn't understand that a blocked pawn can't move two squares. It also doesn't know about en passant captures. I'm told the author has been notified. I suggest sticking to the previous release for now, gnuchess 1.52. Jay Scott scott@cs.uiuc.edu
