Subject: ChestUCI Ver.2.6 - Update

Hi Chest-friends,

since the latest version 0.93 Arena shows the rather annoying behavior
to treat an ´empty move´ as ´illegal´ and take this as a ´resign´ from
the engine, using ChestUCI under Arena is no longer as comfortable as
it has been in earlier versions. :-(
(of course the Fritz- and Shredder-GUI are not affected)

So I´ve made a new version 2.6 of ChestUCI with a little ´workaround´
for this new Arena ´feature´ (more likely a ´bug´), which is activated
by installing ChestUCI with the start-parameter ´/Arena´ - for detailed
informations see the included file ´Arena093.txt´ (also in English).

Furthermore this new version displays some additional informations:
- the _true_ currently used hashsize
- the FEN notation of the analysed position
- (optional) informations about the used CPU (new engine option ´CPU´)

I hope, that this Arena problem will be resolved in the next Arena update,
and I can remove this ´special´ code from my next ChestUCI release again.

Until then much fun with this ´intermediate´ version,
Franz.
