Setting a negative value here e.g. -50 (= 1/2 pawn) makes
tiger avoiding draws. A positive value here make
tiger favor draws.

active ( +/- buttons in statistics window )
In multivariation mode it shows the best n moves which
are no worse then the best score minus this value.

Normal is the recommended setting
Idle is usefull when you want to use the computer for other
work while you have tiger analyse.

Most important is that you set the hashtable size to a reasonable
value.

This enables a extension to the aut232 protocol to allow minor promotion
