difficulty pasting FEN positions into Enter Game Notation dialog #871

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to paste a FEN position for which you don't know what the last two FEN 
fields (5: halfmove clock, and 6: fullmove number) for the game are, into the 
Enter Game Notation dialog. In my case, first, I tried pasting 
"2rq1rk1/pp2ppbp/1n4p1/3pP3/2P5/1P2B3/P2NQPPP/2R2RK1 b - - - -" which led to a 
"Parsing error" and the attached screenshot. Then I tried 
"2rq1rk1/pp2ppbp/1n4p1/3pP3/2P5/1P2B3/P2NQPPP/2R2RK1 b - - -" which also led to 
the screenshot attached. It wasn't until I put in 
"2rq1rk1/pp2ppbp/1n4p1/3pP3/2P5/1P2B3/P2NQPPP/2R2RK1 b - -" that the position 
finally loaded.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I think pychess should correct minor errors in the FEN (possibly with an 
infobar message that has a close button explaining the 
corrections/errors/adjustments made) and start the game. The parsing error in 
the screenshot doesn't explain what the real problem is either.
