hello Lyman,

that's not so easy the way the Gipf-code is written now.
I first do a sanity check on the command to see if it
can be a correct move. at that moment I don't have context
about the game yet, so if the sanity check fails I can't
tell you wat was expected.

I'll try to make the message a bit clearer.

regards,

Kurt.
