Sorry Mike,

I read here and thought it was Daniel's latest > :(

http://www.tim-mann.org/extensions.html#patches
Daniel Mehrmann has been working on lots of additions to WinBoard. Daniel has joined the XBoard Savannah project now, so you can get his latest work from our CVS repository.
I know I've got it somewhere. I try to find it and provide a link later.

Jim.
