WINBOARD

Hi
How do I please setboard your Winboard with a string in standard form.

"setboard rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/6P1/8/PPPPPP1P/RNBQKBNR b KQkq g3 0 1";

I've tried almost all possibilities but none works.

'setboard' is a command that is understood by engines, not by WinBoard. To
enter a position in WinBoard, you just paste the FEN itself in it:

"rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/6P1/8/PPPPPP1P/RNBQKBNR b KQkq g3 0 1"

either via the clipboard and the 'Paste from Clipboard' menu item (or its
shortcut Ctrl+V), or by selecting EditPosition mode, and typing the string
in the move type-in box.
