Eschecs (UCI chess GUI) 5.1.3

[Roland57]

Hello everybody!

A new version of my multiplatform UCI chess GUI (using fpGUI, BGRABitmap and uos) is available. The project has been moved to GitLab.

It's a GUI to play chess (including Fischer random chess) against UCI engines.

You can download and build it from a terminal, or build it with Lazarus or MSEide.

There are Linux binaries here (with a collection of engines).

This version has been tested only on Linux.

Two bugs have been reported. 1° Sometimes an engine doesn't move. 2° Sometimes the application refuses to close. Maybe I do something wrong in process/thread management. It would be great if you coud help me to solve these issues. 

If you want to understand how the application works, it's good to start it from a terminal, where you will get some informations. There is also a file eschecs.log where you can see what happens.

Best regards.

Roland

A new version is available with binaries for Linux and for Windows.

Thanks to Fred vS who helped me to solve several problems.
