That may be, but normaly when a match is started a new game command is given. This is how the standard implementation of the auto232 code works. I am sure it is possible to make an option to not send a new game command, but that is no more than a hack. There is no way to send the position accros, nor the time controls, so this means both sides must be synchronised manually. Although it may sometimes be handy to been able to continue a match, it does reduce the value of it's results. e.g. you may get a different result when you interrupt and continue a game. Anyway, I will put this feature on the whish list and if there is enough interest I may add it in a future update. Lex
