Yes, Manfred, you have a point. I have to admit that if it were impossible to
use TheKing in other GUIs I wouldn't have said a word. What annoys me is the
fact that it is possible, but only possible with a certain amount of
inconvenience. I'll put up with this inconvenience, but I'll be gnashing my
teeth. I would much prefer to remove Chessmaster from my hard drive and only use
the engine.

Thanks anyway for your help :)
