Subject: Some Tiger questions

Great program!  I'm having trouble winning, even at 2 seconds per move.

1.  Is there a FAQ?
I found answers to a couple questions at the Rebel Website, but I bet there's a
lot more somewhere!

2.  Game Analysis.
Tiger places its suggestions as comments, and not as variations.  Who would want
this?  I tried cut and paste the comments into variations, but without success.
I must be missing something basic.  Suggestions?

3.  Game Analysis.
Is there a "best way" to get Tiger's analysis into a ChessBase database?  Even
the old format .CBF would be okay.  I tried the PGN route, but Tiger's
suggestions still appear as comments only.  I tried to cut and paste Tiger's
suggestions into ChessBase variations, but again, without success.  I also tried
converting some games (with Fritz analysis) from ChessBase format to PGN, but
Tiger couldn't read all of the PGN file.  Perhaps it is confused by Fritz'
evaluation symbols?

4.  Game Analysis.
What is the number that appears before Tiger's suggested best line?  It looks
like a move number, but it doesn't have the right value for that.

5.  Game Analysis.
Is there a bug with the amount of time allowed?  I set the time control to 40
moves in 20 minutes, and selected "Use Current Level" in the game analysis
dialog box.  Four hours later, Tiger still was not finished with my 40-move
game!  Que pasa?

Thanks,
Peter McKone
