Hey save a game of loosing then. The chances of that happening are much lower than the other option, that of taking forever to play through 100,000 book lines and marking each one good or bad after a game. However, I was not talking about importing "learn data". If that was the question, I misunderstood. I was talking about "importing good book lines" such as those published after major tournaments in things like Informant, PCN, etc. I don't know of any programs that can "share" learning with the sole exception of Crafty. IE can any other program import Crafty ASCII learn (.lrn) files? Does any other program produce such files for sharing?
