Arena does not send any unique messgage to the engine when a user adjudicates a
game - although in normal play it sends the same message as winboard e.g. "1-0
{White Mates}" which works fine to trigger the little note in the log -
solution: do not adjudicate Crafty wins and/or get the fine people at Arena to
seen a little message to the engine so that the engine can note in the log the
game was adjudicated and in favor of whom.
I do have it working in Arena and Winboard where the games end through the
normal method , an engine resigns etc. Since I just sent out a 1MB file to
about 200 users -- I want to give it some time before releasing the next update,
It will look like this:
Crafty 19.12 SE [Nimzovich] Wins! (or Jekyll and Hyatt) etc.
