The way I got that was to copy & paste from the Dos box, which wasn't too strenuous at the speed it was going. But I might be overlooking something obvious for making a log. It's a cool little program. If you can live without castleling you could play a game against Alibaba no problem. I'll have to get around to it soon, maybe keep track of the game on Winboard. Pete
