[MNO] - I've been working on a client for Internet Chess servers such as the ICC (chessclub.com) and FICS (freechess.org)
for the [PocketPC] using Tcl/Tk for [Windows/CE].  The PocketICS (aka pICS) homepage is at http://www.oakden.org/mark/sw/pICS

It's fairly crude at present, The internal state engine is very minimal and configuration screens etc. are
currently unimplemented.

The code now appears to almost work, using the excellent [eTcl] port.  I say almost since there is an issue with the chess clocks running which I suspect may be a race condition in my handling of them.

pICS currently looks a little like this:-

The script is at the following location: http://www.aowp08.dsl.pipex.com/mark/sw/pICS/PocketICS.tcl

bugs are fixed unless you don't mind losing rating points!''
