gPS
Fixed two nasty bugs in the rgpsp protocol (the remote gPS
polling), version 0.10.2 is out.
eboard
I spent the weekend coding eboard, after some
weird
GtkText behaviour I spent the last night modifying xchat's
xtext widget to display ICS output -- a little line wrapping
oddity still remains but it looks good. This week I'll
hopefully focus on writing the chess-related code and have
an interface capable of playing a regular chess game on FICS
by friday. :)
Someone posted an entry recently about getting the Crafty
chess engine to run in a MOSIX cluster and was searching for
strong players to try with. The FICS (Free Internet Chess
Server) provides computer accounts, so that you can
login
with a chess program and get it pplaying with either other
computers or human players. Notice 1: one of the fics boxes
(particularly the one that is the web server) is down again
this week, the link above will probably only work again by
the end of the week or even next week. Notice 2: the
Free in FICS is for free beer, not free as in
freedom. Notice 3: to reach FICS while the web server is
down, telnet to freechess.org, port 5000, login as guest
user.
Meanwhile... still looking for a job, preferrably one I
don't have to see Windows again.
