In my previous post, I had a typo. I am using gnuchess-4.0.pl70 (not
the ancient one my previous post implied) and xboard-3.1.pl0. When
I ask for a hint, no help appears in the 'move' window under the clocks. 
If I run XBoard with the -debug option, I see that gnuchessx is 
spitting out a hint to the console; XBoard doesn't seem to recognize it,
or if it does it doesn't put it in the window. 

I'd be particularly interested in some start up examples from folks who have 
this stuff working correctly. I compiled the programs on a Sun Sparc 10
running Solaris 2.3 using the Sun C compiler. 

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance, and apologies for the confusing earlier post.

Kerry
