A friend has finally gotten the C code of gnuchess compiled for a PC. One 
question:  in the files distributed, there is one called gnuchess.book, which
I suspect the program wants to consult while running.  But of course on an 
MSDOS machine this gets cut down to gnuchess.boo since file extensions can
have a maximum of 3 characters.  Will the program recognize this file as the 
correct one, or does it have to be renamed to something else?  
Carl Riehm.
