Movei FRC problem

[Volker Pittlik]

...
It seems that winboard still not support FRC and I can play only under arena
...

Is "check legality" enabled? It works perfect here. I can paste that game, castle and then give cotrol to Glaurung. (BTW: I will slit these postings into a thread of its own soon.)

Glaurung is a UCI engine
I tried movei as winboard engine.
Maybe it works with winboard with polyglot and uci engines and I did not try it.

I still did not finish my implementation of UCI support and I prefered to test if it can play as winboard engine first.

Movei could beat aice 8.5:1.5 in blitz under arena

...Is "check legality" enabled?...

...Glaurung is a UCI engine...

To answer my question could possibly eliminate one source of confusion.

By default test legality is enabled
I will try without test legality

trying it I find that white can castle but the board is not updated correctly and the move is not wrriten correctly

0-0 is translated to e1g1 that means knight e1 take rook g1 so the rook disappear from the board.

Here is the game
winboard did not accept castling from black
Ne8xg8 is in blue color in the move history

Here is another game

aice tried to play long castle and movei did not understand the move because winboard sent it e1c1

It seems that also in the first game movei got e1g1
but did not reject it because of a bug = instead of ==

Movei understood it as castling because of the following code:
