Greetings...I just FTP'ed gnuchess from wuarchive, and am quite impressed.
Although I haven't the programming skill to comprehend the intricacies of
it archetecture, I can certainly appreciate the power of this chess
engine.  The interface however, although functional, leaves a little to
be desired.

I understand that it is designed to interface with Sun's Chesstool, and that
xboard is annother interface for the Sun, but being a PC-peon, I haven't
access to these :-(

I wonder if anybody knows of a good graphics interface (preferably with
mouse support) which has been written for PCs.  I'm afraid that writing
such a thing is far beyond my abilities as a programmer.

Cheers

If you are wroking on a PC version that plans to support the
chess informant symbol set you may want to know that the USCF
is going to standardize the high ascii assignments for these
symbols. Contact me via e-mail for more information.
