Hi,

I successfully compiled gnuchess-4.0 (on a Sun 3/50). When it finished I tried
running the "gnuchess" program. The board got displayed, and then the following
message got displayed:

 "Warning can't find book.transposition table is 131072"

After a few seconds another message "Playing without hashfile" got displayed.

After this I was able to play, although gnuchess took a long time to move
(which leads me to believe that the "book" file is missing).

Am I missing the "book" file? If so, how do I get it? The makefile is set up to
make the "small" book.

Also, can gnuchess be used for displaying email games? I'm running gnuchess on
a Sun 3/50 (running Sunview). I don't have access to X :-(

thanks,
tony (giannone@bbn.com)
