Ive often seen depths displayed as X/Y is this the iterative deepening >depth/max depth searched or something? There's no standard really. When it comes to the score, I always encourage people to use something like "1.4 for Black" instead of "-1.4". Although I'm sure everyone knows which engines X use + for white when analyzing a game, but use + for side-to-move when playing the game. :) I mean it's really obvious, isn't it? :) For fail-highs and fail-lows there's the common "++" and "--", but there's also engines which use something else. I think Gaviota uses smileys for this. :) Sargon
