Hey Michael,

you have not tryed Chess-Assistant 6.1.

Hey, hey you are a computer chess friend and have not tryed CA 6.1 ?!?

For me the GUI with the best analyse possibiltys and for sure with the best
engine support (UCI, WinBoard, Tiger's russion Dragon).

So:
Gandalf, Tiger's, Shredder's and all Winboard engines works wonderful.
Try it, at the moment my favorite GUI with WinBoard.

Best
Frank
