Mr. Tuerke.. I tried your program (ALL of the versions available at Gambisoft)
with Winboard more than once.. I have always found very serious bugs in the
interfacing with Winboard. In some instances pieces pop out of nowhere or are
eaten by fanthoms. Maybe you should focus on the piping bit. Alessio
