Hi,

I posted this error some time ago but I did not receive any reply.  I am
posting it again, this time with a sample match and instructions on how
to reproduce the error.

I usually have my matches analysed at 2ply and go through them looking
at my errors.  When reviewing them after the analysis, I usually turn on
tutor mode and play on from an error with the correct move.  I have
noticed that as I play on and I eventually reach a position where I
should double, I don't get the usual popup window telling me if I want
to rethink or play anyway.  However, when I go back to that position
where the double should have come and I use the hint function, then
gnubg tells me that that was a double, so it seems that there is
something wrong with the tutor mode on doubling in this case.  Checker
play is fine.  I have tutor mode enabled for both checker play and cube
decisions.

Included is a sample match which will display the error in a slightly
modified form - I will enable tutor mode and purposely not double where
I should have doubled and you will see that I get no notification. 
Proceed as follows please:

- open the analysed sample match in gnubg
- open the game record window and the annotation window
- in the game record window select game 3
- click on move 6 for user and you will see in the annotation window
that this was a correct double
- go to the settings menu and enable tutor mode for both cube and
chequer play in the options
- now click on the middle of the board as usual to roll dice without
doubling before
- you should now notice that gnubg thinks for a few moments before it
displays the dice and it eventually rolls the dice and displays them
without giving a notification about the wrong cube decision

I am using build Feb 15 2003 on Windows ME.

Regards

Scott
