  Has anyone tried to get GnuChess 4.0 (P62) running on a VMS system?  I
have the "dumb-terminal" version going, but I'm having troubles with the
"curses" version.  Bombs on crmode().  "Access violation error", in case
that's useful.

  Is there a version somewhere using only the termcap library?  That may
be easier than getting VMS curses and GnuChess to cooperate.  Or so I'm
led to believe.  BTW, I'm compiling with gcc (version 2.2, I think). 

Any helpful hints would be appreciated.

thanks,
Rich
