From: steve polley yahoo com> Date: 5 aug 2005 Subject: Re: Shogi software Dear Sir: This is my second email to you- please disregard the first. I have now managed to download CSA 3.01 with the XT extension. Thank you again. However, I am still unclear how to get the program to play handicap games. I am really impressed with the Bonanza program and the fact that it is freeware. I cannot thank you enough for sharing all this infomation with us- and I would like to thank the program developers as well! --- Manabu Terao mx3 ttcn ne jp> wrote: > Your free subscription is supported by today's > sponsor: > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > Erase wrinkles without Botox!
