Yes, it's really not difficult (for me... but people who have never used DOS or
other command line interpreters, may feel very insecure when they should run
such console applications. I can imagine this may be difficult if somebody has
only used graphical interfaces with icons, menus and clickable elements yet, and
has never before typed in a command caring for the exact syntax of parameters
etc.)

On this occasion, another question about the King EGTBs: Do you know which
tables were affected by the generator bug of the first version? There is no
complete list of those in the docs (only one or two examples mentioned IIRC,
including knights). Since the generation of 5-piece tables is a quite time
consuming process, I let only generate all 4-piece tables, and copied all rook
5-piece endings (R+? vs. R) which I want to use in addition to that, from the
CD. Do you know if they were ok (incl. RN-R)?

Thanks,
Mike Scheidl
