If anyone has questions about using cm9k or any winboard engine automatically on
FICS i can help.

I'm still wondering if anyone here knows how to use auto232 with cm9k.  If so,
I'd apreciate any help.  I have winxp pro and I might play around with creating
some pipes, but if someone can help it would save me a lot of time!
