It seems that Romichess P3J doesn't support "setboard". Here is winboard.debug example:

Code: Select all

recognized 'normal' (-1) as variant normal
WinBoard 4.2.7 + romichess_p3j
Reset(1, 0) from gameMode 0
recognized 'normal' (-1) as variant normal
GameEnds(0, (null), 2)
StartChildProcess (dir="l:\romi") romichess_p3j

That is strange. I did not change the interface code at all. I will look into it. Thanks.

I have found the problem. As soon as it is fixed there will be a new release--version P3k.
