More updating of texi file
H.G. Muller [Sun, 12 Feb 2012 10:38:30 +0000]
Leave height of row that only contains buttons free
All elements of the GenericPopUp are still scaled to the text height,
including buttons appended behind them (browse or color buttons).
But we now make an exception for a row that only contains buttons,
as there is no harm in it being a little higher (and the buttons look
prettier that way).
H.G. Muller [Sat, 11 Feb 2012 23:01:24 +0000]
Fix OK button of error popup
The error dialog popped up as a child of the board window, even when
DisplayError was called from a dialog. Now it checks if a transient
dialog is up, and if so, it pops up as a child of that, grabs focus,
and suppresses the system popdown of the transient dialog through a flag
dialogError until it is popped down itself.

Update texi file
Arun Persaud [Sat, 11 Feb 2012 18:18:02 +0000]

Also configure sweep selection
To make sure this feature is tested, we set -pieceMenu false in the
master settings file.

Fix switching animation masks on variant switch
The masks for variant-dependent piees (E,H in Seirawan, promoted Golds
in Shogi, the Gothic Chancellor) were no longer updated in InitDrawingSizes
because of the patch to reduce X-server calls.
H.G. Muller [Sat, 11 Feb 2012 15:46:58 +0000]
Configure wider game list
The game list was by default too small, so that there was no room for the
filter field. Now a width of 500 is specified, whcih works at -size 49
as well as 72.
H.G. Muller [Sat, 11 Feb 2012 15:29:06 +0000]
Fix button chaining and combo/textbox label height
Previous patches forgot to specify the height for the text labels on
-combo and -text options, so they were still too high. Buttons that go
on the same line as the previous element should be chained right, not rubber.
H.G. Muller [Sat, 11 Feb 2012 14:52:52 +0000]
Make -pgnNumberTag option setable from menu
The Save Options dialog now containes a checkbox for this.
H.G. Muller [Sat, 11 Feb 2012 14:48:52 +0000]
Configure some new features switched on
The master settings file switches -showTargetSquares, -sweepPromotions
and -seekGraph on, so that they will get more testing.
H.G. Muller [Sat, 11 Feb 2012 13:43:53 +0000]
Fix heigth of multi-line labels
The previous height patch overlooked that some labels are multi-line,
and need more height.
H.G. Muller [Sat, 11 Feb 2012 13:10:21 +0000]
Fix popdown seekgraph on forward-event XB
Only the grid was drawn when the > or >> button were operated, because
a full redraw was not forced by ForwardInner. The recent patch to take
the seek graph down on such events did not account for that. (BackwardInner
always seems to do full redraw, however?)
H.G. Muller [Sat, 11 Feb 2012 11:59:04 +0000]
Put front-end support for -recentEngines in XBoard
The engines are added to the menu. Problem is still that in XBoard
startup engines are given by command, rather than selected by combobox,
so the command rather than the nickname ends up in the menu. If this is
then selected, it cannot be found in the list. To limit the damage,
Fairy-Max is now pre-installed without nickname. -recentEngines is now
configured to 4.
H.G. Muller [Sat, 11 Feb 2012 10:53:39 +0000]
Better solution to button-height problem
In stead of adapting the height of text widgets to that of buttons,
(as represented by the message widget), we now do the opposite, and
adapt the button & label heights. This is made safe by obtaining textHeight
from the fontSet's max_logical_extent, though an XExtendsFontSet() call.
Turns out the default height of text widgets is not exactly that, but
4 pixels larger for borders and margin.
The parameter XtNvertDistance is now used to align the checkboxes with
the following text widget, and their size is derived from textHeight as
well.
The XtNvertDistance is set to -1 for the lower spin button, so that it
its border coincides with that of the upper spin button. Their height is
set to textHeight/2. This makes their combined height just 1 pixel more
than that of the preceeding text widget. (Uh? 2 x tw/2 -1 > tw?), so for
other buttons we use that too (i.e. textHeight = font_extent + 5).

Fix warning
Deleting debug printing had made a variable unused.
H.G. Muller [Fri, 10 Feb 2012 21:26:39 +0000]
Fix sleeping bug
The text-edit-height patch introduced a bug that did not have any consquences
(yet), as the extra arg erroneously included leftover from a previous
SetValues call happened to be the same as one of the intended args.
H.G. Muller [Fri, 10 Feb 2012 19:51:41 +0000]
Fix unloading of first engine on tourney start
Because NextTourneyGame was loading a new engine before ReserveGame was
called to unload it with dummy game nr = -1), the first engine proc kept
hanging.

Cosmetic: change 4.5 to 4.6 in xboard.conf comment
H.G. Muller [Fri, 10 Feb 2012 16:35:22 +0000]
Fix crash on empty combobox menu XB
XBoard crashed when a combobox without items was opened, as could easily
happen in the Load Engine dialogs when -firstChessProgramNames contained
no items, as it would without configuring. Now the creation of the popup
menu is suppressed in that case.
H.G. Muller [Fri, 10 Feb 2012 16:13:36 +0000]
Fix position of checkbox XB
With the large height the widget get in internationalization, the
checkboxes are position way too high above the text. To shift them down
a dummy borderless label widget is drawn above them (when needed).
H.G. Muller [Fri, 10 Feb 2012 14:07:35 +0000]
Fix heights in Engine Output window XB
The icons did not fit in the space above the memos anymore, so the height
of this area is now left free.
H.G. Muller [Fri, 10 Feb 2012 13:55:48 +0000]
Derive height of text-edits in dialogs from message widget
With internationalization the default height of buttons has inexpliquably
inreased compared to that of text-edits, messing up the layout of the
GenericPopUp. The message widget is now used as a emasure of how high
the widgets should be.
H.G. Muller [Fri, 10 Feb 2012 13:21:37 +0000]
Configure XBoard engines and textures
The new -useBoardTexture option is needed in xboard.conf, as we want to
distribute with the texture on, while the compiled-in default is off.
A list of 4 engines has been configured (fairymax, fruit, crafty, gnuchess),
as the Load Engine and Match Options checkboxes crash XBoard when the list
is empty. The -recentEngines option is set to 0 to make sure the code
associated with it is never executed: the code is still experimental,
and the required front-end support is only present in WinBoard anyway.

H.G. Muller [Thu, 9 Feb 2012 17:46:08 +0000]
Fix MAXENGINES in WinBoard
The front-end arrays for expanding the engine list measured 1000 entries,
in stead of MAXENGINES, leading them to overflow.
H.G. Muller [Thu, 9 Feb 2012 12:05:42 +0000]
Implement kludge to set options through Move Type-in
A leading "!!! " will cause the rest of the line to be parsed as
command line. Very dangerous, as an unknown option (e.g. because of a typo)
will cause a fatal error, which makes XBoard exit.
H.G. Muller [Thu, 9 Feb 2012 12:04:44 +0000]
Put move number in Eval Graph title
H.G. Muller [Thu, 9 Feb 2012 12:00:09 +0000]
Implement -pgnNumberTag option
A new (persistent) boolean option controls if the sequence number is to
be written in saved tourney games as a Number tag, to make it easier
to correlate games with debug files.
H.G. Muller [Thu, 9 Feb 2012 11:55:52 +0000]
Create separate debug fil for each tourney game
Users can now apecify a -debugfile with %d in its name, and this will
be replaced by the sequence number of the game. TwoMachinesEvent then
starts by opening a new file when the name has changed, so that each
game will go to a different file, with recognizable name.

H.G. Muller [Thu, 19 Jan 2012 21:21:38 +0000]
Make New Variant dialog visible in mono-mode
All colored buttons did get a black background, and also black text...

H.G. Muller [Thu, 19 Jan 2012 11:19:27 +0000]
Fix arrow damage with highlightDragging XB
With highlight dragging the highlights of the previous moves are cleared
when lifting the piece. Logically, this should also clear the arrow, but
to do that requires a board redraw, which is not done at this stage. (And
even then this would only be effective after marking the arrow damage,
which is not done yet either). As a temporary fix, we repair the arrow
by redrawing it.
This patch has moved marking of the arrow damage from DrawArrowHighlight
to a separate routine, so a future better fix can also call that when the
arrow should be erased.
H.G. Muller [Wed, 18 Jan 2012 15:01:50 +0000]
Prevent unnecessary loading of engines
For engines that can be reused, the unloading at the end of a pairing
is in some cases wasteful, as the same engine will be used in the next
pairing as well. In simple gauntlets the gauntlet engine will always
stay first engine, while in multi-gauntlets the oppent engine will stay
the same for an entire round. In these cases unloading is now suppressed.
H.G. Muller [Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:22:32 +0000]
Reset protocol version before loading new engine
The protocol version was not reset, so if the previous engine was v1,
the newly loaded engine would not be sent a protover command, so
that its features would remain unknown!
H.G. Muller [Tue, 17 Jan 2012 18:33:32 +0000]
Give focus to board window after ICS login
toprevent that the focus remains on any popped up chat boxes, it is
explicitlly set otherwise. The board window is preferred over the
ICS interaction window, because you can type from there to the ICS anyway,
and it makes all accelerator keys available.
H.G. Muller [Mon, 16 Jan 2012 13:37:05 +0000]
Fix seek-graph popup and popdown
Clicking outside the board area in WB (e.g.on the clocks) would also
trigger seek-graph 'popup'. This is now suppressed by testing for
y-coord > 0. In addition, the seek graph is automaticaly taken down
when we step to another position in the current game (using buttons,
arrow keys or whatever).
H.G. Muller [Sun, 15 Jan 2012 20:29:11 +0000]
Suppress empty lines when observing on VICS
Capture of the engine kibitzes when observing an engine game with

Fix printing non-numeric kibitz with -autoKibitz
Messages that were not considered kibitzed engine PV info for lack of

Implement -viewerOptions
A mechanism is added to allow the user to configure persistently if the
game viewer that starts on clicking PGN files will use -ncp mode, or
