There is no auto232 installed in CM8K.  I have been using a program written by
Eberhard Borger called "winboard232b.exe".  I installed it in CM8K just as if it
were an xboard engine.  It has the problems noted above.  Problems 1 & 2 are
most likely problems with CM8K not compatible with winboard232b.exe.  I don't
know why ChessPartner GUI will not play as black since Chessbase programs will
play as both colors.
