Subject: gnu chess updated

At Stuart Cracraft's request, I have updated the
/u/emacs/gnuchess.tar.Z file on prep to his current
version ftp'd from venera.isi.edu.  The old version
is now in gnuchess.tar.Z-Nov88.  The new version
has X11 display support that is supposed to actually
work (I haven't tested it) but no X10 support.
The old version had X10 support that was too buggy to
use, so the lack of X10 support in the new version does
not really screw X10 users.  
If somebody wants to make a version with working
X10 support, it is probably easier to hack the new
version from X11 than to debug the old version.

	How do you get the file out of the archive again?? Is it 
tar xf gnuchess.tar.Z??  I keep getting a checksum error when I do that!









Thanks,

If Douglas got it via ftp, it is very well possible that he didn't do
a "get" in binary mode. I ALWAYS forget this :-)
