Hi Russell

I understand your confusion :)

It seems to me that everyone says "incremental move generator" about captures
and non-captures generation. So I have joined the club, finally, although I
still consider it a poor choice of words.

Can you think of a better word, so we don't have to steal anything from the
movelist updaters?
