Dear developers, 

Would it be possible to make the "Take back" function work in Retro Engines? 

Would it be feasible to choose two engines and have them play against each other so we can follow the match in PicoChess?

Regards, Waldomiro

Note that you will need to run the following commands in the /opt/picochess folder prior to starting picochess after pulling the changes in order to get the new python modules:

source venv/bin/activate
pip3 install --upgrade pip
pip3 install --upgrade -r requirements.txt
deactivate

Then you can run:

sudo systemctl start picochess

(Another option is to re-run the installation script "./install-picochess.sh pico"

I have now merged this branch to master, so testing can continue in master branch.
To get back to master do this (happy path):
cd /opt/picochess
sudo systemctl stop picochess
git fetch origin
git checkout master
git pull --ff-only origin master
sudo systemctl start picochess

If you are "stuck" and need to force your /opt/picochess into exactly same as latest master code:
cd /opt/picochess
sudo systemctl stop picochess
git fetch origin
git checkout master
git reset --hard origin/master
sudo systemctl start picochess

The reset --hard will always give you the latest master code and overwrite any local code changes you have.

When I have time I could look at the Chesslink retry-connection code and make it a separate async background task so that the menu will not be stuck while Chesslink is reconnecting...
