Is it possible to play against, say, crafty in winboard where crafty has five minutes for all its moves and I have 20 minutes?

The only, rather unelegant, solution I know goes as follows:
(1) Set the clock to 5 minutes.
(2) Disable Auto flag.
(3) Play your game. You'll exceed time when you go minus 15.
