I had just checked it with WinBoard 4.2.6 in Windows. Only when I have set the computer option in the Crafty.rc, the engine responds by putting "playing a computer!" in the log file. But without that option set in Crafty.rc (and starting an wb. engine match), this has not been done. (Tested with 19.07) If I did test it correctly, also the Arena GUI (1.0) doesn't send the computer command automatically. - I'm not sure if a GUI should do this anyway, as it seems to me a crafty specific option... (some other engines have "antihuman" options, IOW a reversed logic of that). The latest cb-native Crafty versions have an asymmetric evaluation checkbox in the engines options (on by default), so I'll forward the info according to the explanations above, that for enginematches it's intended to be switched off.
