Subject: ABC Shogi v0.51 Beta Release

In spite of Gabo's monitor's attempts to delay the next load of ABC Shogi,
we have finally been able to get the fixes in. This new version boasts
several improvements over v0.50, including:

  * An alternate Glyph sprite set has been added.
  * The brain was altered to be significantly faster.
  * The "brain won't drop" bug has been fixed.
  * The stupid moves.log bug has been fixed.

The new brain, however, will require much testing to ferret out the
remaining bugs. If you feel like contributing some time to the ABC Shogi
effort, please try the new version and tell us what you think.  All
comments are welcome. Logfiles demonstrating "stupid" or "illegal"
behaviour are especially useful.

The latest version, as always, can by found on the ABC Shogi webpage:

double spamming you.
