Mine is. EXchess. The link is http://www.astro.brandeis.edu/BRAG/people/dch/chess.html You will have to download the source code version and compile it, but that is very easy to do. I have pre-made opening books for EXchess also available from that page. I just released a new version of EXchess, in fact. EXchess is not quite as strong as GNUchess, but I am working on it when I get the chance. The next big change will be to improve king safety. Right now, EXchess will often leave itself rather open to a piece-sacs that open up a successful assault on the king. - Dan
