Go up one level in this thread
Here you go: xboard -fcp ./engine1 -fd /location/of/engine1 -scp ./engine2 -sd /location/of/engine2 -sgf output.pgn -mg 100 -size small THat's what I use.. if you wanted to test multiple engines x>2, then just create a .sh script with a line like above for each 2 engines pairs. -sgf output.pgn "save game file, appends games to form a pgn database" -mg 100 "multiple games 100 of them" -size small "small window size, optional" Sincerely, Joshua Shriver I also believe if you check Tim Mann's website, somewhere under xboard or misc, there is a bash script for doing something simliar.. Might be worth checking out.
