For me it just as much an interface question that could interest all programmers
who create gui's etc. Also for engineauthors it could be of interest because
some bugs/special use of a protocol could be easly repaired in an engine. Like
this issue in question, if the engine smell on broken pipe (returning error from
read/readfile) it can take the itself down the correct way.

If the Arena author want to share some of his thought he is more than welcome
into this forum.

Also, testing your own creature against beta's isn't something you normaly do so
it isn't important for me to have access to the latest beta version of a gui.

The reason I don't play with Arena myself is because I almost only play games as
human against engines and the nasty deley when you try to move a piece have
stoped me to go any further. For the few engnine-engine matches I do I'm more
than pleased with Winboard and the Ert tool.

Ok, I missunderstand some messages from you. I thought I read that you
threatened to delete users that didn't give response some months back.
