It's only confusing the first time you do it, and there's loads of help available. I never heard of an autoinstaller to do the work for you. I guess the easiest thing to do would be to put Crafty and it's 2 books into the Winboard directory and add it to the ini file, but you'd sure want to add an rc file to turn Crafty's log off so that it wouldn't take over the directory with piles of log files. I never tried running Crafty that way though, I'm sure it's a bad idea. Pete
