I was not very impressed by the fact that in this late stage of development,
Arena fails to support sending SAN to a winboard engine. My engine only accepts
SAN, and even though Arena answers "feature san ok" or whatever the protocol
says, it sends in "b1c3" format anyway.

I refuse to alter my program until I specifically decide to support Arena, in
which case I will do it with UCI.
