Subject: The Guard Heuristic

Hi all,

I wonder if anyone is familiar with the 'guard heuristic'.
I came across a chessprogram that seems to be using it,
but I've never heard about this before.

It seems to have appeared in ICCA, followed by a comment
by Schaeffer, but I didn't find anything usefull on the web.

If someone here knows about it, or can look it up in ICCA,
could you please post a short description? Thanks!
