.SH TIME CONTROLS

|
|
If one argument is given, it is the search time per move in
|
|
[minutes:]seconds.
|
|
So
|
|
-.B gnuchess 30
|
|
+.B gnuchess4 30
|
|
will generate one move every 30 seconds, while
|
|
-.B gnuchess 5:00
|
|
+.B gnuchess4 5:00
|
|
will generate one move every 5 minutes.
|
|
|
|
If two or more arguments are given, they will be used to set tournament
|
|
time controls with the first argument of each pair being the number of moves and the second
|
|
being the total clock time in minutes[:seconds]. Thus, entering
|
|
-.B gnuchess 60 5
|
|
+.B gnuchess4 60 5
|
|
will set
|
|
the clocks for 5 minutes (300 seconds) for the first 60 moves,

and
|
|
-.B gnuchess 30 3:30
