I believe what the first post observed was exactly what was describe by Tim. That when time control is reach, the time is for both BLACK and WHITE is resetted to zero, REGARDLESS of whether either of them has any extra time left on the clock. I agreed with the first post in that the extra time left should be brought forward to the next segment of play. This is the more correct behaviour. In this respect a small change to SetTimeControl() routine will accomplish the desired purpose. (I did this for my copy, pl 54). Another bug about which I've sent an e-mail to Stuart is that when time control is reached, the clock is resetted after WHITE has moved, but BEFORE Black has made his move. Again a simple fix to the SelectMove() routine to include the check for side == black will suffice. I hope these two *bugs* will be fixed. On another note, I am working to port Gnuchess 4.0 to Windows 3.x. There is a windows version for Gnuchess 3.2 (was there ever a 3.2?) written by Daryl Baker, so I thought I'll bring it up to date and maybe add in a few ideas that I have in mind. I'll keep the net posted on this. Kong Sian, Chua National University of Singapore D n C On another note, I am working to port Gnuchess 4.0 to Wind
