I too just released my first attempt a few days ago. our engines look like twins - we both started work about the same time and we both have about the same set of features. i'll download Elephant as soon as your update is available. my first update will be soon. You omitted ability to adjust hash. i have that but i forgot (never thought about) to implement the winboard st command. With Bruja it blitz or tournament, no in between. Best of luck Dan Honeycutt.
