This may be common knowledge, but maybe someone will have pity on me
and fill me in:  Is there a way to play gnuchess + xboard across the
net to have it display on two screens; one machine taking input for white
the other taking input for black?  I saw where you could have two programs
playing but I'm thinking of two people playing.  I didn't see that mentioned
anywhere.

Also, being new to chess programs, I don't know what being rated 2100 means
for a program.  Do you win 2100 games or something?  Is gnuchess rated?
I saw the number 2100 in an ad for a chess machine.  If this is a over-worked
thread, maybe someone has an article they could e-mail me about 'ratings'.
