Chess News

Update: Polyglot 1.4b30
Michel Van den Bergh's Linux and Windows builds based on Fonzy Bluemers modification
of Fabien Letouzey's Polyglot with original work and bugfixes
- Conversion from C++ to C (suggested by E.M.)
- More refactoring. The win32 and posix I/O now have a uniform interface (see pipex.h).
- Some more meaningful error messages added.
- Some buffer overflow checks added.
- Simplification of strange signal kludge in gui.c.
- Removal of obsolete code in engine.c and gui.c. Platform specific code has been abstracted and pushed into pipex_win32.c and pipex_posix.c
- The format of the version number has changed once again. Debian was unhappy with the previous one.
