definately not.
chessbase interface does not support positional.lrn for crafty.
and i agree with you crafty has better book.lrn feature.
though both are done differant ways, but IMO crafty's one is superior.

the book thats better for junior does not necessary mean its good for hiarcs.
the book thats good for fritz does not necessary mean its good for nimzo
the books thats good for the chessbase engines does not necessary mean its good
crafty.

if it is so then anyone can come with a "good" opening book and run all programs
with that particular book. Why do they bother to make differant books for
differant chess programs? really!! why?

when chessbase compiles (after doing necessary adding of codes) crafty to run
under chessbase, they adds codes and removes some too (positional.lrn ??)to make
it 'compatible' with chessbase interface.

'to me' it looks like 'yet another tweaked crafty'.
