Subject: The King, Arena and WinBoard

I ran into a problem running The King 3.23 in Arena. It seems that The King
sends castling with zeros and not letter O's (0-0 and 0-0-0 vs O-O and O-O-O).
Arena's PV display doesn't like this and gets messed up, cutting off at the
castle move and displaying illegal moves at that point. I'm running The King
through InBetween, so to solve the problem translated 0's to O's for Arena. The
ironic thing is that Arena displays castling using zeros in both its PV and game
listing!

Scid handles 0's, O's, or a mixture of the two with no problem. What is the
WinBoard protocol on this?
