It's much easier to just use Winboard to setup a position and then save it as an
epd position than to maually put those things together, I'm not sure why people
bother doing it.  I'm sure that Xboard works the same way.  I'm not sure what
Mac users have avaiable to them, but I think maybe my brother in law tried to
send me an epd position made by MacChess.
