Hello group,
I am setting up my first Winboard engines. I have got SnailChess and TCBishop to work. I cannot seem to get Bringer_15 to work.
/firstChessProgramNames="Bringer_15 /winboard\" /fd=\d:\\Progra~1\\Chess\\WinBoard\\Bringer\
\"SnailChess_101 hash=3\" /fd=d:\\Progra~1\\Chess\\Winboard\\Snailchess\
\"TCBishop_0045 TCBxInit.cui\" /fd=d:\\Progra~1\\Chess\\Winboard\\TCBishop\
"
/secondChessProgramNames="Bringer_15 /winboard\" /sd=\d:\\Progra~1\\Chess\\WinBoard\\Bringer\
\"SnailChess_101 hash=3\" /sd=d:\\Progra~1\\Chess\\Winboard\\Snailchess\
\"TCBishop_0045 TCBxInit.cui\" /sd=d:\\Progra~1\\Chess\\Winboard\\TCBishop\
Here are my current settings.
A PopUp window states;
unrecognized argument /Winboard"
can someone tell me why my line of coding is not working ?! Thx.
Also, I have read if I use quotes " " that I can use long directory names like " Program Files" but I tried it with SnailChess and it does not work. But if I use Progra~1 it does work. Am I on a wild goose chase here.
Thx,
Sean

Hi Sean,
the backslash in front of d: looks wrong, try without it or (even better) download a file with correct settings for many winbord-engines from Frank's homepage
(www.in-trier.de/~quisinsky)
Greetings,

this is my command line for bringer
\"bringer1_6 /winboard\" /fd=\"c:\\program files\\Winboard\\bringer
\"bringer1_6 /winboard\" /sd=\"c:\\program files\\Winboard\\bringer
get the last version of bringer, this is the 1.6
