You assume that you have to answer every question. I think that if you tell the customers that you do not answer them questions about winboard and UCI then it is OK. You only need to make the facts clear before the customers buy it. I fail to see the disadvantage of program that also can run on winboard or UCI even if the author does not explain how to run it in that enviroment. Uri
