C:\CRAFTY17>dir /w [.] [..] BOOKC.BIN BOOKS.BIN CRAFTY.EXE CRAFTY.RC BOOK.BIN That's the edited Crafty directory of mine (there's other crap in there) but just get those files from Bob's ftp, crafty.exe was renamed, and you'll have to put together your own crafty.rc file (but you don't really need one) and you'll have Crafty. Now the trick is making it work in Winboard, not as hard as it first seems, but if you get stuck with that there's plenty of good help available at the Winboard forum http://f11.parsimony.net/forum16635/ (great place!) My opinion is that a Crafty setup program would be contrary to the nature of Crafty. Pete
