Yeah, we waste allot of time passing around ini files for Winboard, maybe
there's a Winboard newsgroup, there's one for everything else.

But we all have different path info, I have no intention of using the same paths
as Frank Quinsinsky uses for example. I saw something that I liked where someone
had all Winboard programs as subdirectories a a dir called c:\chesprog or
something to that effect.

We all need dif hashtable sizes too. Allot of this stuff is somewhat related to
how more or less customizable Winboard is.

BTW, what does that Popeye program do at your ftp? It's not in English so I
didn't take any time to figure it out.
