It's really just an engine for Winboard or Xboard.  But like Crafty, it can do
all sorts of stuff independant of Winboard.  I'd say it's not as stabile as
Crafty though, I'm surprised sometimes when it's crashed on me, but I'm just
getting used to using it again, so I might still be making mistakes.
