HISTORY\r
\r
-WinBoard is a port of the Unix program XBoard to\r
-Win32, the 32-bit Microsoft Windows API.\r
-The graphical front end (WinBoard.c, etc.) is all\r
-new, but the back end that understands chess rules,\r
-chess notation, GNU Chess, the ICS, etc., is shared\r
-with XBoard. See WinBoard.hlp for a list of\r
-contributors to WinBoard and XBoard.\r
-\r
-MANUAL INSTALLATION\r
-\r
-For a minimal installation of WinBoard and its\r
-companion version of GNU Chess, create a new\r
-directory and copy the following files to it:\r
-\r
-WinBoard.exe (WinBoard program)\r
-WinBoard.hlp (WinBoard documentation)\r
-gnuchess.exe (GNU Chess 4 engine used by WinBoard)\r
-gnuchesr.exe (Command-line GNU Chess 4 engine)\r
-gnuchess.lan (GNU Chess 4 messages file)\r
-gnuchess.dat (GNU Chess 4 opening book)\r
-gnuchess.txt (GNU Chess 4 documentation)\r
-gnuches5.exe (GNU Chess 5 engine)\r
-book.dat (GNU Chess 5 opening book)\r
-gnuches5.txt (GNU Chess 5 documentation)\r
-\r
-Use the Program Manager or the Explorer to create an\r
-icon for WinBoard.exe, and set its working directory\r
-to the directory you created. Besides looking for\r
-its companion files in this directory, WinBoard also\r
-loads and saves game, position, and setting files\r
-there.\r
