Ok, thanks for the explanation ... should have figured that out myself ... but asking is always easier :) >If you can compile it yourself, make a "dchest" instead of an "achest", >and you can use the -M to use larger hash tables. Yep, I could ... but chose the Dann-version instead, because I only have Borland C++Builder to compile with, and it seems to generate executables that are quite a bit slower than the ones coming out of MS VC, or the Intel compiler. For Pretz I don't care, because I don't have an optimized program anyway ... but for yours I did ... :) I'll send Dann an email asking for a recompile if he has some spare time left. >Ha!

Add some listboxes for output, etc ... errrr, don't tell anyone! >You seem to have interpreted the results correctly. Chest gives the complete >list of key moves as "bm". Yep ... the output is pretty clear. One other question: when you tackle one of these problems, do you startup Chest multiple times using -Z4, then 5, etc? Guess not, right? Probably you use the built in command interpreter? >Explanation above. >If you cannot recompile (or get Dann to do so) you have to live with >the fixed 42MB version. Sorry.

Wish I could have seen it ... want to buy a TFT myself one of these days. But checked and Berlin meant a 6 hour train ride ... and that's just one way! ;) >Cheers, >Heiner Groetjes, Paul
