Re: Eschecs
Hi, Roland Chastain. I liked the game. I even played the whole game (Cpu won). If you add some better arts, sounds and a list of moves, the game will be a full-blooded one. So, it is fun.

Thank you for the feedback. Sound could come soon.
I fixed some small bugs and changed colors. Files updated.

Re: Eschecs
Hello!
Here is Eschecs 0.9.1.
It includes a FEN string validator (a dynamic library). So you can start a game at any position if you run the program with a FEN record as first parameter:

Re: Eschecs
My apologies to people who downloaded the latest version of Eschecs. The program couldn't load the "engine" DLL. Now it's fixed. I also found and fixed a bug that occured when the computer played a castling move from the book.
Please look at the new files. :)

Hi, Roland
Playing with v.091 on linux; after all related to 'rebelbook' commented-out it is compiled succesfuly.Does exist 'rebelbook' library as a linux version somewhere (download link) ?, or could you add info about compiling/installing on linux ? Second correction for linux was slash changed and paths - to be accepted on my laboring area.
I didn't search it as I am not chess fanatic and my free time for other things is very limited..
After all compiled OK on linux and Eschecs started. Nice app, it likes me !

Re: Eschecs
Hi petan!
Thank you for your feedback and for your appreciations. I didn't compile rebelbook.dll myself: I found it on Ed Schröder's website. I imagine it would possible to make a Linux dynamic library from the C source code (or even to translate the C source code to FreeBASIC), but for now I don't know how to do it. Maybe one day?
It's nice to know that Eschecs can work under Linux. If you have time to show me the modifications you made, I could include them in the next release.

Re: Eschecs
Well, today runned also from Knoppix 7 - OK ;) yesterday worked on Puppy Precise.
Looks good on linux.Screenshot here - just for fun.https://db.tt/UIMMkrRj
No problem, today I'll clean files from my notes &zip&upload on a wwwstoreplace.
If I can ask you - you don't use handy live linux distro (putted on USB pendrive/SDHC card) for testing of created apps on Linux ?

@petan
I had a look into your .tar.gz file. I see one file named tartmp.m7nYex. What is it? I expected to see some source code. I wanted to put a copy on my web site. I didn't looked into it sooner because I don't have a Linux machine.
Best regards.

Re: Eschecs
Maybe missing archiver plugin for .tar.gz files, or NON-root privileges ??
Link gives a file 'RSchess-lin.tar.gz' with correct unpack manner, viz s'shot.
I can pack it as .zip file, when you have a troubles..
BTW, working linux machine can be enabled in 5 minutes netto, of course plus time to learn.
Manual + my comments here

Re: Eschecs
Thank you for your anwer, petan. Usually I don't have problems with .tar.gz files. I don't know what happens. But, yes, it would be nice to pack it as a .zip file.
Thank you for the suggestion and the links about quick Linux installation.

Re: Eschecs
Hello! Here is a new version of Eschecs. Only the interface has changed: I replaced buttons with a menu.
@petan
I am sorry, but for now I can't continue the development of the Linux version.
