Hello,

this goes to the maintainers of glchess, gnuchess(x)
and xboard. 

I tried to install glchess for gnuchess and crafty.
Whilst crafty worked without problems, glchess wants
to find the gnuchess binary 'gnuchessx'.

Coudln't find gnuchessx, so patched file main.c of
glchess to read

    game->path_gnuchessx = binary_path("gnuchess");

instead of

    game->path_gnuchessx = binary_path("gnuchessx");

I'm not sure if the version of gnuchess should instead
be named gnuchessx or if a hard link from gnuchess to
gnuchessx would be sufficient.

Same problem is for xboard, where file xboard.h needs
to be changed to

#define FIRST_CHESS_PROGRAM     "gnuchess"
#define SECOND_CHESS_PROGRAM    "gnuchess"

instead of

#define FIRST_CHESS_PROGRAM     "gnuchessx"
#define SECOND_CHESS_PROGRAM    "gnuchessx"

Or, change installation of gnuchess such that references
to gnuchessx will also work...

Regards,
Holger Kipp
