I have tested the winboard-adapter of shredder 5 ... And well, the result above
could be in the margin of errors, it is a short row of games, but for sure the
shredder 5 GUI hurts Crafty, because it is nearly the same then the Chessbase
gui but does not send anything to the engine to understand that. Shredder 5
sends after every move a new command, so every information from the last search
get lost. There is no "shredder" command to inform the engine that it is working
under the shredder-gui so it can't react on that... (Only engine I know so far
which has an special shredder 5 - mode is my little Quark... but even with that
it can not beat crafty... :)

Greets, Thomas
