Jin is unable to perform an anonymous login at ICC.

The Jin login will not accept an '!' (exclamation mark) prefixed to the login name as required by ICC's new "anonymous login" feature.

    I don't think I want to fix this by simply allowing a handle to start with '!'. I would rather have a "Login anonymously" checkbox on the login panel. This, however, means another commandline parameter (http://www.jinchess.com/wiki/index.php/Commandline_Arguments) needs to be added. Since I'm on the verge of releasing Jin 2.14, I'd rather not start major changes at this point. I'll most likely fix this for 2.14.1.

    Yes, of course. I unfortunately forgot about this when releasing 2.14.1.

    Yes, but 4 months of waiting and still impossible to connect anonymously; a quick new version like 2.14.2 with just this feature ?

    I also have this problem - I need an ! as first character as my username to log on anonymously and jin will not let me do so.
