Fritz is made by Frans Morsch who writes in assembly. Sure he is a great guy, i can personally confirm this. Nevertheless he won't be able to sell IRIX versions from Fritz, and he is a commercial chess programmer. So obviously i would not advice him to write fritz for IRIX. Irix is what is getting used by SGI. It is a further developed unix version. Best regards, Vincent
