In the engine parameters in say Fritz 8 for DeepSjeng there is an area where you
can type in the location of personality in my case from above;
C:\Program Files\ChessBase\Engines\DeepSjeng1.0\Patzer.per

You can then save these to CB param files with save. Seems you'll have to enter
every personality manually but once saved as name.param then you can load them
as param files rather than type in the personality every time.

But as of yet I've been unable to determine that these personalities play any
different from the Default. Even after creating a personality TEST.per with a
maximum depth of 2. IOW it don't seem to work in CB.
