Subject: Quicktest update

Some problems have occured when people tried to run the Quicktest by automatic
testsuite processing. I have improved the english description of the test:

http://meineseite.i-one.at/PermanentBrain/quick/quicke.htm

The positions are - roughly - sorted by difficulty, starting with the most
difficult ones. Users of automatic testsuite processing functions should be
aware that #9 and #22 are avoid move tests. The moves given are mistakes the
programs must not "find", but avoid within the solving time. In #22, the
solution is 7...Qe8 in the variation, not the wrong move 7...Kxg5?? which was
played in the game. Please take a look at every position and solution move of
the program(s). With the short maximum time of 1 minute, manual testing doesn't
need much time. Take a look at the example results for comparison (if you have
tested the same programs), to spot possible problems.

The downloads available from the webpage above include EPD/PGN/CBF, and XLS for
Excel users to calculate the results easily.

Thanks,
Mike Scheidl
