- Added a 3 seconds timeout in stop engine command, this
to avoid hangs during exit.

- Removed call to FlushFileBuffers, again to make stopping
the engine more reliable.

to spell out each keyword in the engineex.ini file. The defauls
are:

Logfile=""
Console=""
EditMode="0"
InputMoveDelay="30"
OutputMoveDelay="0"
EngineDir=""
EnginePath=""
ExitString="quit\n"
EditEndString=".\n"
SwapColorString="c\n"
EditString="edit\n#\n"
ForceString="force\n"
UndoMoveString="undo\n"
ColorStringw="white\n"
ColorStringb="black\n"
ComputeString="go\n"
MoveNowString="?\n"
NewGameString="new\nrandom\n"
InitString="xboard\nnew\nhard\npost\n"
PonderOn="hard\n"
PonderOff="easy\n"
BookOn=""
BookOff=""
SetAnalyseMode=""
ExitAnalyseMode=""
Options=0
Level0="level 1 9999 0\ndepth %1\n"
Level1="depth 29\nlevel %4 %7 0\n"
Level2="depth 29\nlevel 1 %7 0\n"
Level3="level 1 9999 0\nsd %1\n"

Level5="depth 29\nlevel 0 %7 %5\n"
Level6="level 1 9999 0\ndepth 29\n"



11jun2001 - version 4.0.0.13

Added option to send time/otime before engine is instucted
to compute a move. To enable the option, add the Options=
keyword. The value 2 controls this options. e.g.

Options=2	- Sends time/otime
Options=3	- Same + score invert.


28may2001 - version 4.0.0.12

- Fixed a crash that could happen in analyse mode.

27may2001 - version 4.0.0.11

- After setup position with black to move, some engines could still be
in force mode while the adapter was not, causing the move calculation
not to start.

- Update clocks in tournament and time increment levels.

8may2001 - version 4.0.0.10

- The ponder on and ponder off strings where not always send correctly,
causing pondering not to work. This has happened mostly in combination
with the latest ERT.

- Added extra Options= keyword, when setting Options=1 the score as returned
from the engine is inverted when it is blacks turn. Use this option for
engines that give their scores always relative from white. e.g Crafty 18.x

- Added BookOn and BookOff options, these strings are send when the gui
give a command to enable or disable the book. This options are mainly
there to support nunn matches whithout using an openening book. When 
left blank nothing is send to the engine.

- When entering edit mode with black to move, it now sends force\na2a3n
where it previously only send a2a3\n  This could confuse some engines.

21apr2001 - version 4.0.0.8

- Corrected bug where when playing the engine on ICC/FICS with white AND
using the gui book and having pondering on, in that case the winboard
adapter would not send a "force" command to the engine causing the
engine and winboard adapter to get out of sync.

19apr2001 - Version 4.0.0.7

- Made parsing of winboard output a bit more flexible, now works
with engines like Gandalf. In the previous version the variation
was expected to start at column 27 exactly.

dec2000 - Version 4.0.0.6

- Fixes incorrect mapping of tournaments levels and garbled display
of opening booknames.
