I noticed a couple things playing on FICS that do not bother me but I wanted
to mention them.
1. The PGN Window displays the "Standard" rating of the player instead of
the Blitz rating when playing blitz games.
2. When the FICS console window is open if the arrow key is used to go back
on the text/command line, it also makes pieces move back one move.
3. The variables for FICS are not saved under Options -> Save Options.
4. Network timeouts - I am trying to get more details but, in Windows &
Linux when playing over WiFi connection, the FICS Server becomes unreachable
for 30 seconds to 1 minute at a time. The WiFi connection is not down and
it is not the OS. Whith an ethernet connection there are no timeouts.
5. Moves in an FICS game get sent either the console/command line or moving
the pieces with the mouse. However, when doing puzzles using puzzlebot "ie
tell puzzlebot gm1" the moves have to be entered with the command line for
the server to recieve the moves.
I'm using beta 3 version in Windows and the CVS version on Linux.
In the future, I hope to contribute fixes but for now I wanted to at least
mention these items.
