I came across the YACE web site the other day (http://home1.stofanet.dk/Moq/). Interestingly it explains some of the search techniques employed by YACE. One that I haven't come across before is explained as follows: "ALL_MOVES_IN_CHECK: When set, and a capture checks the opponent, essentially one non capture search will be done. This will need a bit more time, but will find mates earlier." Any idea what's meant? My guess is that when a capturing move also gives check extend the search. Steve
