Re: Released: updated version of WinBoard Shogi-Variants package
Hi there,
I was wondering if you had gotten HaChu to work with Taikyoku Shogi. It's mentioned on http://hgm.nubati.net/HaChu.html that it's designed for large variants such as Taikyoku but I haven't been able to find a download link for a version that supports it.
I love the work you're doing, keep it up!
