hello Gerrit
However in my computer (a now obsolete P120) Bringer is the only
engine that does that. Not even Rival Chess, which also keeps the
windows GUI open when running. Would it be too much to ask that you
consider distributing a console version of your program, (besides
the graphical interface), as Arasan is distributed, for example.
