Gerald,

Since your in windows explorer (or whatever you use), copy swap.bat to the
directory where tiger is located. Then all you have to do is double click on
swap.bat to run it. You can verify the books were swapped by either looking at
the moves (as Jim suggests) or you can check the file sizes of gambit.tbk and
ct.tbk before the switch and after the switch (Remember to refresh explorer by
hitting f5).
