Many Faces of Go 11.0 Patch download

This patch fixes two bugs in Many Faces of Go 11.0.

In April 2003, the Internet Go Server (IGS) changed its login procedure, and Many Faces of Go version 11.0 will no longer log in correctly. After appearing to log in, the command window will show lines that start with numbers, like "9 file", and the internet commands menu will be gray and unusable. In August 2006, IGS changed the output for observing games, exposing a bug in Many Faces of Go that causes it to crash when observing games. This patch updates your Many Faces of Go to be compatible with the new IGS login, and fixes the bug that causes crashes when observing games. It replaces the older 2003 patch.
