Yes, Shredder 3 at least is winboard compatible and can be unlocked as a
winboard engine.  You need to report your computer's ID to Stefan and he will
send you the unlock code.  After that you will have both Shredder's own GUI and
a winboard Shredder.  Great stuff: you can match Shredder against other WB
engines and use on FICS or ICC or Chess.net.
