Hi!

Pretz (with just check extensions turned on) finds a Mate in 9 in 14 seconds on
my P2/400, but no other mate before that (congrats Christophe :) ...

00:14 BM9 09 Bxa7+ Rxa7 Nexc6+ Ndxc6 Bxc7+ Nxc7 Nxc6+ Nxc6 Bxc7+ Ka8 Bxc6+ Bxc6
Qxc6+ Bb7 Rg8+ Bd8 Rxd8#

I've been looking through the archives a bit, and came across this mate that Dr.
Dann posted a long time ago, it's not too easy, but not too difficult either for
top programs (but mine has a hard time finding it :) ...

[D]2r3k1/5ppp/7r/Q7/3P1p2/1N3Pnq/PP3K1P/R5R1 b - -

J'espère que ce te plais (my French isn't what it used to be, ha!) ...

Salut!
Paul
