Subject: Skaar - Updated Code Posted

Hi everyone,

Thanks to the many that have submitted comments, suggestions, criticisms and
bugs. I have just posted updated code incorporating the following changes:

- it works on other people's PCs (oops :-)
- configurable via registry settings
- tested with Blikskottel and Crafty
- other minor bugs fixed

For those who missed the initial post, Skaar is "glue" code intended to hook up
WB engines to chess servers in a flexible, programmable manner. As the web site
is now online, I will post updates here only when substantial new functionality
is added. However, the code is very much in development; if you are using or
testing it, please check the web site often.

The URL for Skaar is http://www.oellermann.com/skaar .

Many thanks
Adam Oellermann

PS: The name "skaar" comes from the Afrikaans word "skottelskaar", meaning
"ploughshare". My chess engine's FICS account is "skottel", so it seemed like a
natural name...
