I have been autoplaying for a couple of years and I am sick of the list of
features that unless one obeys, one cannot auto232....

It demands a certain size opening book?  Or wont 232!
It demands a certain size of Hash table be set.
It demands tb access be available
It can not save a game and start another, without asking for screen input?????
Well if the result is unclear autoplayer function stops???????????

To call the Chessbase an auto232, is a bit of an exageration, as it can and will
stop only for reasons known to the Chessbase people!
