48 winboard.rtf (compiles to winboard.hlp)
65 Wrote from scratch (I believe) bitmaps.xchess/*80*.bm. Other bitmaps
66 in the bitmaps.xchess directory were derived from these by shrinking
67 and some hand-tuning. By default these bitmaps are no longer used.
68 Their copyright status is unclear.

132 Heaviliy modified winboard.c, backend.c, moves.c and parser.l, to
