The bin for Crafty is downloadable from

	ftp://insl1.etec.uni-karlsruhe.de/pub/chess

Look through the subdirs and read the .message.

The pgn-source for the bin-file is only at home. But if someone is
interested, i can place it also on the ftp machine.
But everyone should build their own book, therefore the new
rock.pgn is there. With an extractor u can easily extract
the games from the best 50 players of the world.

For me it works well, maybe someone can post experinceces with
the top50.bin. So I know, that my work is on the right way.
