The Makefile for gnuchess 4.0 pl68 is distributed with the OPT line for the gnufour ICS client uncommented instead of the "normal" one. This is a mistake. The Makefile is also distributed with -DUSEINT defined. This option adds the line of code "#define short int" to gnuchess.h, before a number of system header files are included. This is totally brain-dead, and caused me to waste some hours in the debugger; I had to go down to the assembly-language level before I realized why isalpha was giving the wrong answer. The following might work better: # gnufour ICS client # #OPT= -DCACHE -DCLIENT -DGDX -DHASGETTIMEOFDAY -DHISTORY -DNULLMOVE -DQUIETBACKGROUND -DBAREBONES # normal OPT= -DCACHE -DGDX -DHASGETTIMEOFDAY -DHISTORY -DNULLMOVE -DQUIETBACKGROUND -DSEMIQUIETBOOKGEN --Tim
