(your fix came too late BTW :)) I know that it might be possible to fix a certain GUI for the lots of unconventional castlings (and perhaps e.p.?) but its about the name of the game and its rules, almost. Do you think that there will be a high percentage chance that someone really wants to make such an ugly workaround (if it will work at all), instead of adapting the programs to the real rules of an existing game?
