2001-11-11Apply a patch from Tim Mann's chess site that fixes the following problem:jlam1-5/+9
The "edit" function is not implemented in GNU Chess 5.00. This means that XBoard's "Edit Position" feature will not work with it. Loading a position from a file, loading a PGN game that starts from a nonstandard position, or playing an ICS wild game in Zippy mode, etc., will also not work. Also fix the gnuchessx script to accept options and to pass them through to the gnuchess binary. Bump package version number to 5.00nb2.

2000-10-15Update to gnuchess-5.00nb1: add code to allow building of opening books injlam6-26/+143
user-specified locations. Remove installation of default book...it's so small that it's pretty much useless anyway. See games/gnuchess-book-* for chess opening books for GNU Chess.
2000-10-01Open the opening book with read permissions, not read/write. This fixesjlam1-0/+13
an error where GNU Chess would go out of book on the first move when it fails to open the book read/write, and concludes the book isn't there.
2000-03-26Update gnuchess to 5.00. From the GNU chess web page:jlam5-126/+32
Version 5.00 is the current release. Version 5.00 shares no code with versions 1.x through 4.x. The major motivation for this release is to simplify chess code making it more pedantically accessible, use modern data structures, make it easy to modify by less skilled programmers, and increase understandability to non-programmer, skilled chess experts.
