GNU still plays decent chess. >And it can still clean someone's clock if they have a glitch here and there... Yes, it's nice that you were actually not being sarcastic. It's a pity that the GnuChess project didn't find a real follow-up . Actually I thought that Gnu 4 was a quite decent chessplayer, and Gnu 5 never really convinced me at all. But it's not really a great sparring partner for Crafty IMHO, unless you want to see some impressive scores ;) .
