Fischer Random 960 Support

With ICCF now having more FR-960 events, it would be nice if this app added the 960 support to link in properly with the rest of the family of apps.

Thanks Michael, we still dont have the full 960 support in our apps (especially adding moves) but we will surely look into this in the near future.
What currently happens if you try opening a 960 game? I guess reading of such games should work and you can even make moves (non castling).
Thanks!

Asim,

It displays a normal position at the start, and only displays moves that would be legal on a normal board, so, for example, a pawn move first move. But as soon as a piece moves from a square that is not in classical chess, it stops...

Obviously, it is not even being passed the correct starting FEN.
