Chenard logo by Jim Ablett     update
Chenard 1.1.40  (Wb)
by Don Cross
http://cosinekitty.com/chenard/

What's new:
1. 2nd fix for a problem with the chess notation output
    which happened when Chenard promoted and captured
    on the same move. (should be fixed now) Also some other
    notation fixes.

2. Chenard will now not consider resigning if less than 25 moves
   have been played (I've noticed a few premature resigns
   happening every now and then) and also won't consider                 resigning until resign threshold score has been passed twice.

3. Added winboard 'level' command

4. Adjustments to time control and other small bugfixes
