I am trying out the new version of TCB 0045, and I have editted the config file
for it, yet I see no disk action when tablebases should be used in a game..
Can someone help that maybe uses TCB? Here is my init file:


;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;;
;; tcbxinit.cui
;;
;; initialization file to run TCB with xboard or WinBoard
;;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

  ;;; edit and uncomment the following line to enable EGTBs

Also does anyone have a better book than the fritz4.pgn that I got off Frank's
site?
