According to the WBII specs stat01 is only defined for analyse mode and having a bk command with an undefined output is pretty useless. Further more there is no defined way to set various engine parameters like hash size, tablebase path, books, personalyties, styles etc. To solve al these I added just two commands: setvar - sets a variable getvar - to retreive a variable. The list of variables is currently in a ini file which belongs to the engine, the GUI uses the list to build a dialog and to send the proper commands to the engine. Lex > >Odd Gunnar
