Subject: Restrict use of a2a3 kludge
X-Git-Url: http://winboard.nl/cgi-bin?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bb4d76aafcb93c821d31fea13bf7fbd5b14a2d2f;p=xboard.git

Restrict use of a2a3 kludge

The kudge to send "a2a3" in stead of "black" to get black to move is
fatally flawed in varants that have no Pawn on a2. So in that case we
revert to use of the deprecated "black" command.
