while I change RĂ©mi's auto232-Adapter so that it allows some kibitzing I head
also you in mind... because I know that with the new rules you can not play at
the moment and still I feel sad about that. The auto232-protocol works over a
nullmodem cable or over the network. Your engine must have some special commands
for starting a new game etc. -> when it has them there is a adapter so that you
can connect via auto232... maybe you eMail me about that - in the meanwhile I
search for the description...

Greets, Thomas

P.S.: There might exist at least one problem: my tries to get it to work with
Windows XP and some old DOS-chess engines were so far not successful... but I
will try with a windows 98 box in the near future... especially when I see some
interest for it...

PPS.: Other engines which I had hoped to see playing maybe once was e.g.
Diogenes...
