Yes, this should definitely work if you use Ruffian in text modus (and it is
pretty clever ;) ). According to the author current public version of Ruffian
interprets analysis as "Game in 833 hours", next one won't.
I have only used Ruffian as an UCI engine so far or in engine matches with
WinBoard but I will give your tip a try when I feel like letting it analyze
forever next time.

And yes, I agree that Ruffian is _really_ incredible, not only when compaired to
other free programs! Especially with slow timecontrols.

Thanks for the hint!
Peter
