You may be lucky and someone here will be able to help you *but* I suggest that you try http://www.gnu.org/software/xboard/ There are two mailing lists [email protected] and [email protected]. Personally, I would ask on the [email protected] *AFTER* making sure I am doing what the documentation says but not getting the results I expect. I don't know what kind of reception you'll get asking a user support question on a development list but there appears to be no user support list/forum. Describe the problem a bit more - what happens exactly and what did you expect to happen. I use xboard but don't use it in the way you describe above, so I can't help you in this case. -- "If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." --- Malcolm X -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
