I'm using the standard iterative deepening whereby the program calls first to
ply 1, then ply 2, etc.  It actually does a full-width search only for the first
move of the first call to depth 1.  Thereafter it uses a smaller window.  Maybe
I should do a full-width search for the first move of *every* iteration?

Cheers,

Mike.
