WinBoard plus WinZippy ICS (FICS) Support.
Posted: 27 Dec 2008, 09:04
I have started using Winboard 4.3.14k enhanced with WinZippy on FICS.
I like all the enhance features like move-list (History), Evaluation Diagram n Engine Output.
Further more I would like to request following features for WinBoard in WinZippy mode:
1) By default, WinBoard in WinZippy mode should be able to accept all offers (accept t all -> true), and able to accept the request for "ABORT", as opponent do not like to play with Chess Engine.
2) By default, WinBoard in WinZippy mode should able to say "This is xxx Chess Engine using WinBoard x.xx interface. Hope you may enjoy or you may abort." to an opponent when new game starts. Allowing an opponent to choose whether to play against chess engine or not.
3) WinBoard in WinZippy mode should able to say "Thanks for Playing. A nice Game." and seek new game automatically (if true) with 3 different custom configurable parameters in winboard.ini (FICS allows 3 different seeks like 1 0, 2 12 n 5 20). [ /winzippy new game seek1, /winzippy new game seek2 n /winzippy new game seek2].
Thanking you for enhancing Winboard and making it better n better.
