- This is patch3 for gnuchess3.1+, It contains a set of improvements
- and fixes mainly in handling the opening book. They came from
- phs@lifia.imag.fr (Philippe Schnoebelen). Phillipe sent me the
- following note about the changes.

- I've made some more minor modifications because:
-
- 1) if you edit the board and use more than 16 men, gnuchess is lost,
-
- 2) if you quit the opening book and then backtrack, gnuchess has lost the
- book,
-
- 3) if you edit the board, gnuchess still use its book !
-
- In addition, I allowed the '?' to be used in the opening book. A move
- tagged with '?' is not played by gnuchess. This allows teaching the program
- how to refute unsound traps, without letting it playing them.
-
- Here is the patch. Do you know if anybody is coordinating the GnuChess
- development project ?
