I want a file that contains everything that the program searched in the game,
not just main lines of analysis, see

"Re: A tough position /Crafty tries" THAT's what I want Chessbase's programs to
do.  Crafty makes a new one for each game unless you turn the log off.

This could be an option in their Engine Parameter dialog box.  It's really
something they should have in their interface, a LONG time ago.
