Do all engines use the same book ? You can set them to accept different books, ex: I could set one for Jbook another for F6 general book. But in this event they are all using the same book F6 general.ctg. >I assume probably the ones who don't have an opening book of their own will have >to use some uniform one . None of the young talents engines come with there own book. And I know of no way to get either of the other engs Crafty, Comet, Nimzo or Yace to run their own specific books in say F6 interface. >b.)

In this computer that I run these tourneys on book learning is set to - as far as possible, though I am not sure the effect is that great as either program to move would seek to play the strongest line depending on book settings and since they all are using the same book the odds seem to me the same as with a clean (new) book.
