Subject: Help with Auto232 under ChessPartner interface (please)...

Author: Peter Kasinski

Does anyone know how to make a program under ChessPartner (5.1, 5.2) interface
play a sinle game with BLACK against a Winboard opponent?  Tried it maybe a
hundred times and it NEVER works for me.  Either Gandalf 5.1 or ChessTiger 15
will even at first post a header with (say) Gandalf showing as BLACK, but after
Crafty issues the first move Gandalf accepts it and IMMEDIATELY switches sides
taking WHITE.

This does not happen when I use ChessBase or Shredder interface against CP. It
only refuses to work if White is initiated under Winboard.  I am using the
following command to start Crafty:

winboard.exe -fcp crafty.exe -fd "C:\WinBoard\Crafty" -mg 1 -autoCallFlag false
-scp "winboard232d -com 1"

with the ChessPartner opponent waiting as a slave.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
