To the best of my knowlege you cannot annotate a game with Crafty while using
Winboard, you have to do that from the Crafty program itself. It'll help to
first read the Crafty.doc file first and maybe write out what you will enter in
Crafty before you try to do it. BTW if (when in Crafty, not WB) you type in
annotate  Crafty will remind you how to enter the annotate command, you'll see
something like this:

White(1): annotate
usage: annotate <file> <color> <moves> <margin> <time> [nmoves]
White(1):

But go and look at that doc file because it explains more or less what that
stuff means. Crafty does a great job of annotating a game, I prefer Crafty's
annotations to Fritz's by far because it's easier to control Crafty.
