Subject: i have a couple of questions about crafty.

i downloaded crafty from gambitsoft just now, and it said it was version 9.31,
but in the history file of the new crafty after version 9.29 there is only
version 10.0.  Also, this version didn't work with winboard.   Where else can i
download old versions of crafty like 9.21 or 9.07?  They seem to be doing much
better positionally, tactically, and during the endgame at the louget test, than
the new crafty. I wonder how they would do against the new crafties in the real
games.  I heard that the new crafty plays much better on the quad xeons, but if
it takes it 1 minute to find a move on 4 cpu-s, it will take it about an hour to
find the same move on my pentium 100.  Is crafty 9.xx optimized for slower
machines?
Also, i really like these new styles for crafty, but how can i change the
default settings for winboard.  It would also be more interesting if there were
more options like in Chessmaster, Gromit, Zchess, or the future Rebel version.
Thanks.
