Hi,

I have changed the gnuchess.book so that gnuchess always
plays King's Gambit. It works fine except that sometimes
gnuchess does not play the moves in the file and 'think'
about the position to play (in general) a weaker move.
This seems to happen randomly.

Is it possible to force gnuchess to look at the gnuchess.book
file and to follow an opening line till its end?

I have still another question: how can I promote a pawn in
another piece than the queen?

Thanks.
