Congratulations.

Gnuchess is an OK sparring partner, but I am wary of erratic play, the odd
compilation, and interface problems.  I would suggest a more uniform opponent,
perhaps Gerbil or TSCP.

I recall my first draw against Crafty on ICC, must have been late 1999 or early
2000.  Pretty heady stuff.  Well, all I can say is, 3-4 years later, and after
thousands of hours of work, now I can draw with Crafty almost occasionally.
Yippee!

Good luck.

Will


p.s. (unlike me, it might be best to start with one of the aforementioned free
programs, and go from there.  save a couple of years.)
