Thanks! I need exactly this.

Do I understand well? Your program will come as compatible engin that could be
used from programs like Fritz, Hiarcs and so like?

If it is this, it is what I consider the most important before your solver will
be in every big chess programs. Until now, I found only one mate solver engin in
one professional program, between those that I have. As good as this engin
inclusion looked to me (and I expect it will be in the next version of that
chess program) your is well beyond seeing mate solving engin performance. No
doubt in this! I verified some positions to see this.

Probably what you say have much bigger chance to be realized that my hopes.
Already IBM royally screw its good expectation to be first system by not
providing open access to its OS/2 system. There IBM had its own SDK like package
with the same heavy tag price and almost the same big company oriented policy.
Why Microsoft will be wiser? I just must stop dreaming and go to my Linux
retraining. Probably, when I will have next computer for Linux, I will do just
right this.

Cheers,
Leonid.
