HI,
 Thanks for your suggestion on xchess, it works now.  However, it will not
play with gnuchess. Do you have it running. The xchess man page talks
about setting the compat flag in file main.c, but my gnuchess has no such
file.  The gnuchess documentation is equally confusing.  Any tips?

Also, I cannot see the pieces on my color display.  They show up fine
on my B&W machine.  This may be a problem of finding the right colors,
I haven't played with it much yet.

                                       Thanks for any and all help,

                                                Rob.
