In article <6337@ptsfa.PacBell.COMJeff: jlwestm@PacBell.COM (Jeff Westman) writes: Jeff: Jeff: In GnuChess 3.1, how does one attain a new queen (pawn promotion). I have Jeff: tried various combinations, such as a7a8, a8=Q (assuming that a pawn was Jeff: indeed on that square!). I also tried "hint", and GnuChess said to try Jeff: a7a8. Still, nothing works. Any ideas? Jeff: Jeff: Also, what does the "+", "-", and "&" mean when using the "post" command? Jeff: Jeff: If anyone can point me where these things are documented, that would help, Jeff: and anser other questions, too. Jeff: Jeff: Thanks in advance! Jeff: Jeff: -- Jeff: Jeff a8q or a8Q is the way. Documented it seem not to be yet. the + - and & indicate how the search is going. + the evaluation is better than expected - the evaluation is worse than expected & something... must check the source it is not in my version. rgs Urban Koistinen - md85-epi@nada.kth.se
