Can the -xreuse >option be put in crafty's .rc file? The -xresue is a Winboard/Xboard command and tells Winboard to restart the engine after each game. Since Winboard does not look at the crafty.rc file it will not work there and must be given on the Winboard command line. Also crafty does not know what -xreuse is so you will get an error if you place it in the rc file. Bryan
