For the analysis to be worthwhile, you have to analyze each position for a long
time.  Crafty can import EPD analysis.  You can create EPD records from the
games with the SAN toolkit by Steven J. Edwards, with Rémi Coulom's program or
the one that Koundinya Veluri wrote.

Then you can analyze the records with a variety of programs.  Bruce Moreland
made a utility so that any program that uses the Winboard protocol can do it.
Then, the Crafty program has an import command that can read the analyzed data.
But (again) you will really have to pound the stuffings out of the data for it
to have any value.

Send me a copy, unless they are blitz games, before you delete them.
