The Tiger.dll (version 12e) for Chess Assistant and Chess Tiger 12e for the
Chess Partner GUI is the same. I think I can get the best answere of my
questions from the Tiger programmer, the reason for me to ask here. OK, now I
have a good answere.

Interesting for me and I think for tousends WinBoard Fans is the questions ...
Can I played with Tiger and WinBoard Engines ? I think you have not an interest
that user can play with your program under differnet GUI. This is not a problem
with a WinBoard engine. The most user have fun on engine matches with 1 PC and
have not an autoplayer.

OK, Tiger is not a WinBoard engine but I think a good way is Chess Assistant. Is
Chess Tiger now not compatible to Chess Assistant is your programs for engine -
engine fans not interested. User could not played against other, I mean 65 free
other programs, under the same GUI !

For other programmer, the best example is Steen Suurballe with his comercial
program Gandalf, is it important that user can played under his favorite program
under his favorite GUI.

I hope that all programs are compatible to all GUIs because this is good for the
user.

Best
Frank
