REBEL-CP (some hints in defence)

As Lex already explained the current ChessPartner has its defaults
settings focused for the mass-market. Of course this will not be
the case for REBEL-CP.

Here are some hints which will change ChessPartner into a chess
program you are used too.

You can download the REBEL piece-set from the Rebel pages at:

www.rebel.nl/cp/rebelpcs.zip

To install:
- unzip the file into the BITMAPS sub-directory of ChessPartner.
- you need to have an UNZIP program that supports long file names such
as WINZIP.

To activate the REBEL board:
- Click RIGHT on the chess-board
- Pick "Select Piece Set" from the menu.

Later a few more REBEL piece-sets (smaller / bigger) will be available
for download to make your chess life more convenient.

Also have a look at the "Report2d" piece set.

To change the colors of the board:
- Click RIGHT on the chess-board
- Pick "Properties" and then "Chessboard" from the menu, the normal
Windows rules apply.

ChessPartner is a full 32-bit standard Windows 95/98/NT application. It
supports all the Windows standards such as:

- screen-items are RIGHT-clickable. That is if you click RIGHT on a
screen-item all its function are directly available (without the need to
search in the pull-down menu)

- all screen-items can be dropped anywhere on your screen just drag
and drop, the normal Windows rules apply. This even is true for the
button-bar on top.

- you can re-size all screen-items to your favorite size (Windows
standard rules)

- ChessPartner supports all kind of standard Windows "copy & paste"
possibilities to export data to other applications.

- ChessPartner supports multiple in-line nested comments.

- ChessPartner supports long filenames.

The Statistic Window:
Make sure to set information=all in OPTIONS/VIEW to view the
results and maximum info of the chess engine.

Move List:
Enable as much as possible options for full data.

Of course all this kind of things will be standard when REBEL-CP
will be released so you don't have to configure it first.
