Winboard Forum

I have found a group of more than 100 blind chess players from South America called Tifloajedrez. They are running tournaments on FICS using Winboard for Jaws.

hgm, your efforts are not in vain!

hi oliver,
i prepared turkish language file.
can you add it to winboard for jaws 4.52 or new version?
and i cant translate some messages like end of messages on freeches.org. for example:
koroglan checkmated
forfeit on time
forfeits by disconnection
some of friends want to hear notaition with city name.
there are that lines in jawslang.txt
"ay" === "a"
"b" === ""
i wrote city of name adana instead of a and it is working
but others doesnt work.
can you help me about this problem?
thanks so much
