Chest is for sure one of the best if not THE best mate solver around. The
programmer is Heiner Marxen - I have had some really nice discussions with him
in Berlin at the BELCT 2001. It is really interesting how different the point of
view to chess is when programming a mate solver compared to a chess program.
Heiner is a real genius in my opinion... (Yes Heiner, you are... :)

You can get Chest on Heiners homepage together with some very interesting
informations.

The link is: http://www.drb.insel.de/~heiner/

and the link to the chest-homepage is:

Greets, Thomas
