For DOS, not for Windows...

Yes. These programs you mention are all DOS with the exception of 3
Windows programs: Nimzo 98, Shredder 2 and Fritz 5. These 3 have
propietary autoplayer devices. 32 bit drivers in the case of Nimzo and
Shredder, 16 bit in the case of Fritz 5.

True. You keep arguing about the sex of angels when for everybody else
involved there is only one issue that matters: all autoplayers should be
made public if we want the SSDF to continue their testing,
irrespectively of the pedigree of the autoplayers.
