Hi jose! I am actually writing my own chessprogram for about 2 months now, and it´s in old turbo pascal 7.0 since that is the only language I was really familiar with, since chess is really difficult to program, i didn´t want to have to go through learning C as well. It´s probably not so hard to port later on if it gets good or whatever. I´m 21 years old and i´m not new to programming, only to chessprogramming, but I find it really interesting and fun! My program knows all the rules including castling 100% by the rules and en-passant. But also doesnt know the 3 fold repetition and the 50 move rule. It has it´s own user-interface with chessboard and pieces, mouse-support, scroll-able history(=moves) list etc. Lots of options, clocks etc. my program is purelly full width fixed depth probably like yours. I managed to get rid of all the bug-moves and it now plays an entertaining game of chess I have gotten to the alpha-beta stage myself and i´m now ready to start implementing and figuring it out myself! Write to my email-adress and i´ll send you my program + source if you want? (tp 7.0) It´s quite intuitive, the program is still clean and easy to understand the different parts. We can look into the similair problems together? We seem to be at the same stage.. Hope to hear! from holland, Stan
