Compatible to all comercial GUIs and very strong, works fine. Interesting for Winboarders is also the WB menue "Help / Book" :-) Chrilly have a very good own Nimzo 2000 GUI. I hope that Chrilly in the future work on his own GUI with new possibilitys. You can looked in my CCE tourney. Here are playing 3 Nimzo versions. I believe the ELO from all latest Nimzo versions are ~ -+ 25 Points. King safty is a problem in Nimzo, looked in the Patzer games from Leiden for an example. Patzer with 2 very short games with nice king attacks. Do you have try UCI AnMon vs. UCI Shredder 5.0 :-) AnMon made a lot of points against Shredder ... Best Frank
