GnuChess continues to run in background

[Jens Hamacher]

Hello,

I was testing the program "glChess" and "knights" on my linux system.

I noticed the following problem:
 -gnuchess continues to run in background after quiting knight without closing 
game.
 -gnuchess continues to run in background after glchess crashes.

What makes this especially obvious is the fact that gnuchess uses all 
computation time from the system.

 I would be thankful if you made a new version which would include my fix.
 I made following fix (I copied the "rinput" function from the 
program "sjeng").

gnuchess/src/input.c:
----------------------------
/* The generic input routine */

void rinput (char str[], int n, FILE *stream) {

  /* My input function - reads in up to n-1 characters from stream, or until
     we encounter a \n or an EOF.  Appends a null character at the end of the
     string, and stores the string in str[] */

  int ch, i = 0;

  while ((ch = getc (stream)) != (int) '\n' && ch != EOF) {
    if (i < n-1) {
      str[i++] = ch;
    }
  }

  if (ch == EOF) {
     cmd_quit();
  }

  str [i] = '\0';

}

void getline_standard(char *p)
{
  if (!(flags & XBOARD)) {
    fputs(p, stdout);
    fflush(stdout);
  }
  rinput(inputstr, MAXSTR, stdin);
}

------------------------------
