Personally, noble TC, I like the algebraic notation. I can set my board much 
easier that way. 
Thanks for your excellent work.
Hugh

  How do you want problems displayed in the so-called 

  algebraic style?  I have a sample below for a game starting setup.  I 

  used spelled out names thinking it is easier for screen readers.  Braille 

  users may disagree, however.  What do you folks say?

  Problem Layout:

  FEN:
  rnbqkbnr/
  pppppppp/
  8/
  8/
  8/
  8/
  PPPPPPPP/
  RNBQKBNR

  Algebraic:

  White:
  King e1
  Queen d1
  Bishops c1 and 

  f1
  Knights b1 and g1
  Rooks a1 and h1
  Pawns a2, b2, c2, d2, e2, f2, g2 

  and h2
  Black:
  King e8
  Queen d8
  Bishops c8 and f8
  Knights b8 and 

  g8
  Rooks a8 and h8
  Pawns a7, b7, c7, d7, e7, f7, g7 and 

  h7
