It might be better to replace the 0-7 with 0.7 as it makes no difference. I
still wonder why Fritz uses the name with small letters, ie. amy 0.7 instead of
Amy 0.7, unless you preload the engine in a match against it first. I presume
that the Fritz GUI uses the name from the .init file when preloaded and the
annoying small letter version otherwise.

Best wishes...
