Hi Adam,

Thanks for spotting this error. Your analysis has helped me to fix it.
I have uploaded the change to the software repository, but it will take
some time to release a new version.

Regards,
Antonio Ceballos

In gnuchess 6.2.2, the -a command-line option doesn&#39;t work properly: it=

From a quick look at the code, this seems to be because the loop at the<br>
