Code is a chess GUI which is open-source here available:

https://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.html

Select a mirror from the list , choose "xboard" package. For now latest
version is 4.9.1 .

I remember compiling/installing it was not easy job though.

Now some typical warnings from original code:

Code1:
if(gameNr < 0 || appData.tourneyType < 1 ||  // gauntlet engine can 
always stay loaded as first engine

Warns1:
   CC       backend.o
backend.c: In function ‘ReserveGame’:
backend.c:1538:7: warning: this ‘if’ clause does not guard... 
[-Wmisleading-indentation]
        if(gameNr < 0 || appData.tourneyType < 1 ||  // gauntlet engine 
can always stay loaded as first engine
        ^~

Code2:
   { "x", ArgInt, (void *) &wpMain.x, TRUE, (ArgIniType) CW_USEDEFAULT },
Warns2:
./args.h:791:44: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size 
[-Wint-to-pointer-cast]
    { "x", ArgInt, (void *) &wpMain.x, TRUE, (ArgIniType) CW_USEDEFAULT },
                                             ^
Can I fix such warnings ?
