Second question, do other WB engines run under >Linux? > >Ed Ed, And please forgive me as I am not an engine programmer but to answer your two questions: 1) You would have to compile an executable that will run on Linux as the Windows executable will not. 2) I am not familiar with all the winboard engines but Crafty, Yace, Phalanx, and Faile have either a Linux/UNIX executable available for download or the source plus a make file to compile on Linux/UNIX. I hope I have answered your questions. Many of the other posters to this thread could give you much more technical information than I can. Regards. Steve
