Save this file in the CM8K players directory
so... C:\PROGRAM FILES\CHESSMASTER8000\WINBOARD232B.EXE
In Chessmaster
Go to the GAME ROOM -> IMPORT XBOARD ENGINES
Call the personality whatever you want ie. "AUTOPLAYER"
The XBOARD filename c:\PROGRAM FILES\Chessmaster 8000\winboard232b.exe
The command line parameters -noextend
(or if COM port is COM2) -noextend -COM2
Now on your other computer, set up the autoplayer.
In CM8K to get a game do

Personality B/ AUTOPLAYER
Do a similar setup with your other computer & software
Press ENTER and enjoy the fun!
