I'm trying to get gnuchess running on my Sun 3/50 (SunOS 4.0). Chesstool
comes complete with no documentation on the accepted commands. Gnuchess
& Chesstool co-operate to allow me to make the initial move. Then Gnuchess
thinks for a moment and makes its first move.

Only problem is, Chesstool (this is Sunview remember) doesn't recognise
Gnuchess's move ... Chesstool then locks up forever (or at least, until
Gnuchess gives it a command it can deal with).

1 - Is there documentation for the chesstool interface?
2 - What is the bug in Gnuchess which stops it working. I have seen no
    patches.

Appreciate your responses ...

Nick.
