Hi again,
There is one problem though with the help files/manual.
It seems they cannot be displayed on Western versions of Windows?
I would like to become more experienced with all the possibilities
of the interface. If you have any hint how to get a readable
help/manual, I would welcome it.
I remember once I started a 4 0 game (my usual tc for chess servers)
and just before I had started, the interface said I had added 1 minute
to my opponents clock - well, what the heck I thought ;-)
If you are interested in an occasional sparring partner in the range
of 1900 - 2000 Elo (after around 20 games there, I reached + 250),
just mail me.

Regards
Guenther
