If you want to report a possible bug in GNU Chess, please send a message to the e-mail address indicated above, providing precise information about the conditions that led to the possible bug. As a general guideline, you can kindly include the follow information:

• Version of the program. The following command will print it:

• How you started the program. Whether running standalone or in combination with other programs such as XBoard.
• The actions you performed and the output or behaviour you observed.
• Output files if any. In order to enable the writing to adapter.log, set the following option in config file gnuchess.ini:

  Log = true
