Probably if you rewrite this paragraph more people will download the windows
version :-)

I have omitted a little thing in the program... so, if you have to promote a
pawn, let Raffaela to make the move for you, because i have not implemented the
choose for the piece to promote to. If you push the pawn in the 8th rank...
you'll get just a pawn in the 8th rank :-). You can enter such kind of moves by
typing on the text box that you'll find nearest the button "Mossa", for example:
"e7e8=q" or "e7e8q", then press the button "Mossa" (Mossa means move).
