Hi,

I did some testing on 6.2.5 with jcchess gui.
I ran it with --uci parameter.
The issue is that when the engine responds there is a spurious prompt
of 'White (1) :' that gets sent early on.

So instead of responding to 'uci' with 'id name GNU Chess 6.2.5' I get
'White (1) : id name GNU Chess 6.2.5' which messes up the engine name.

I tried with Arena 1.1 for Linux as well and it has a similar issue in
that the response to the the initial 'isready' is 'White (1) : readyok'
instead of just 'readyok'. It still works, just takes an extra 20
seconds waiting.

I can send logs if needed.

Regards,
John Cheetham
