Beowulf Paths for Personality and Book

[John Vraimakis]

Hello, I want to thank first the moderators for the excellent job they've done on this forum. It even supports greek, that's great.

To the subject. I tried yesterday to install Beowulf. I isntalled it to the following path:

C:\Program Files\Winboard\Beowulf

Then I changed the configuration file so as to enter the right paths for the Personality file and the book. But it didn't seem to recognise the space beetween the Program and the File in the path. So it tells me that the file dowsn't wxist. I solved the problem (moved the files elsewere) but .... it's still a problem

Thanks a lot,
John Vraimakis
