- Welcome to xboard and gnuchess for xfree86/os2 !
-
- To execute these programs, you need os2, the emx runtime environment and xfree86 for os2.
-
- Problems like searching on special drive letters should be solved (hopefully) now.
- As you see, both programs are now provided in one package and fit both
- under the /xfree86 tree.
-
- You need only the two executables xboard.exe and gnuchessx.exe and the files in the
- /xfree86/lib directory. If you want you can delete the other executables, they
- are different textmode versions of gnuchess and compiled with ncurses, which you might
- have not, so I don't know, if you can use them.
-
- One Problem still remains: gnuchessx is putting the computer under very heavy load, it is
- playable on my 133MHz Pentium with 64 Megs and not playable on our 486 DX 4 100 Mhz with
- 24 Megs where I work.
-
- Report port specific problems to me:

- The compiled version of xboard is 3.5.0 and the compiled version of gnuchess is
- 4.0 pl 77.
-
- Have fun,
