Subject: Check Extesion

Hi all,

on Mr. Schröder's Page (thanks for the great page!) i read the an extension in
REBEL is made, when the King moves _out of check_. In my own Engine I extend
when the King is _in check_.

Are there any known differences between these ideas, or are they equal?
What are other engines doing?

Without trying it, I would say that extending when King is _in check_ has the
advantage, that you dont enter into the quiescence search with king being in
check.

Any experiences?

Martin
