     Hi Michael
     I am puzzled. The above file should not run
     correctly. If you are working with Odd Gunnar
     Malin's Wb2Uci-adapter, it should be
     Filename=Wb2Uci.exe

     My Wb2Uci.eng looks as follows:

     [ENGINE]
     Name=SmarThink 0.16b
     Author=Sergei Markoff
     Filename=Wb2Uci.exe

     [OPTIONS]
     Program=Smarthink.exe
     Ponder=true
     Analyze=true
     Logfile=false
     Visible=Ponder,ShowThinkingMove,Logfile

     Just for playing games this works well. But the
     settings are not best for analysing purposes under
     Fritz8-GUI.
     Kurt
