Subject: Implement check-count field in FENs
X-Git-Url: http://winboard.nl/cgi-bin?p=xboard.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=e458db4d65d5c54cccda5ee8c51659e882d9b0b4

Implement check-count field in FENs

A field of the form N+M between e.p. field and ply counter is now associated
with the CHECK_COUNT game state on reading and writing. It is only written
when non-zero (which again should only happen in 3check). In addition a field
of the form +N+M after the full-move number is recognized on reading as the
SCIDB check counter, which indicates checks given.
