I added game navigation to the applet: all moves performed on the board are recorder to form a game, and the usual set of recorder buttons is added to navigate through that game, including an auto-step button. For defining a Betza move you no longer have to press a button: terminating the entry of the string with will automatically activate its compilation.

Most XBetza constructions seem to work now. You are especially encouraged to try:

gQ (Grasshopper)
mafF (XQ Elephant: lame leaper that can be blocked at the F squares)
mafsW (XQ Horse: uses forward-sideway on second step to rotate W to F)
RmasR (Hook mover: R or two perpendicular Rook legs)
FyafsF (Griffon: F or F followed by R, after range toggle (y) and rotation of F to W)
mRpafscR (Deflecting Cannon: turns 45-degree corner at platform)
mRgabyabsR (bifurcator: collides by stepping one back from platform)
K3pafKcafK (Werewolf: has distance-2 leap or locust capture in addition to range-3 Queen)
