New WinBoard protocol definition

Post by hgm »

Note that I have made a new version of the protocol definition, in an attempt to clear up some ambiguities in the old definition at Tim Mann's website, in accordance with the way that WinBoard now actually implements them. I also added the description of the new WinBoard 4.3.14 features that I recently posted here.

I created a thread in the WinBoard forum development section to discuss it, where you will also find a link to the new protocol definition.

Let me know what you think.
