Hi is it possible for you to run an engine while connected to an ICS and
also have it Auto-Accept, so that it automatically plays a move in reply
to an opponent over the ICS' move?
If I undstand your question correctly, this is what is known as 'zippy
mode'. The command
xboard -zp -ics -icshost freechess.org -fcp crafty -autoKibitz
will run Crafty as bot on FICS. The -zp argument tells XBoard to use both
engine and ICS.
