Subject: Chessbase engine handicapping.

Hi everyone.

I have a question about handicapping Chessbase engines from the Fritz 6 GUI:
Does handicapping (moving the rating slider around or selecting sparring mode)
work equally well with all chessbase engines, or are these functions
specifically designed for the Fritz 6 engine?  For example, will sparring mode
work with HIARCS 7.32 engine?  Will moving the rating slider work to handicap
the Chessbase version of Tiger?

I imagine that coding something like sparring mode into an engine could be quite
complex, and I can't imagine how it could be implemented in the GUI alone
(without the engine supporting it), so I'm confused about how all Chessbase
engines could offer all the features of the Fritz 6 GUI.

Thanks for any explanations.

Travers
