FLAG

***** FLAG *****    

Command: flag

This command checks how much time you and your opponent have left.
If one player has run out, that player forfeits on time (even if
it is you!).  If both players have run out, the game is drawn.

There are alternatives to flagging your opponent if he has run out of
time.  You can choose not to flag.  Or you can give "moretime".  But
there is nothing wrong with winning on time.  It is part of basic chess
rules.

You can type "set autoflag on" to have ICC call your opponent's flag
automatically, so you don't have to type "flag".  This setting will
remain in effect until you turn it off with "set autoflag off".
