- I just finished my game with gnuchess-4.0.pl60 and won! This version
- of gnuchess seems to have fixed the bugs I had with 3.1. Also, I like
- xboard much better than xchess. Gnuchess-3.1 refused to respond to my
- move #17 of Nb3; it thought for over 24 hours before I killed it.
- Gnuchess-4.0 responded almost immediately, so I could finish my game.
-
- I must say, I'm a little disappointed that gnuchess allowed my to
- checkmate it so easily. It chose to take a pawn instead of preventing
- the checkmate. Someone may want to look at this, it might be a bug.
-
- Here's my game. It's half in english and half algebraic notation
- because I changed from gnuchess-3.1/xchess to gnuchess-4.0/xboard
- in the middle.
