Gnuchess folks:  Well I have gnuchess working on an hP 9000/720
                 but it won't work with Xboard. The xboard comes
                 up and looks pretty, but when you make a move it
                 declares the move illegal. This is because it is
                  appending a "1" to all the moves you make, both
                 your moves and the computer's moves?

                  Example: e2e4  becomes e2e41,  ng3 becomes ng31, and
                              so on..

                   This is gnuchess 4 and xboard 4 also I think. I recd
                  the files from lune.csc.ac.uk  or lune.csc.uk.ac,
                   in /hpux/Gnu.

                   Has anyone run into this?

aloha
