The Macintosh version of Crafty, built from the final version of the
source code (well, according to Bob ...) is now available for download
at:

ftp://ftp.cis.uab.edu/pub/hyatt/macintosh/Crafty-14.5.hqx

The whole thing is intended as sort of a "starter kit" and hence
includes a custom book with popular lines, plus the essential 3 men
tablebases. The file is a 680k binhexed StuffIt archive.

Have fun.
