Subject: Fisher Random chess supported by ??

Hi - pardon me if this has been asked before.

I just tried out Fisher Random chess on the Internet Chess Club (ICC). At the
ICC, Fisher Random is known as Wild22.

Afterwards, I tried loading the PGN from that sample game into Rebel 10b.  Rebel
loaded it pretty good (no error messages, and position after one move by each
side correctly displayed in Rebel's database window).  But the Load and Delete
buttons were disabled, so further work with that game didn't look possible with
Rebel 10.

My question is: what chess programs, if any, do fully support Fisher Random
chess?

Below is the sample (not serious) Fisher Random game in case anyone wants a test
case

thanks, Bruce
