(1)  Compilation proceeded on a 286.  We tested  GNUCHESS  on an IBM-XT 8088
         before releasing to the net. 
(2)  You'll need ANSI.SYS declared in your  CONFIG.SYS  file as a device.
(3)  TSRs are probably not the problem, per se.
(4)  Memory shortage -might- be a problem; try removing TSRs.
(5)  CGA graphics are -not- the problem.
(6)  Try it out on a larger memory machine.
