I think the fastest way of doing attack detection in 0x88 is probably the one
described by Bruce Moreland (http://www.brucemo.com). You can look at his open
source program Gerbil to see a working example of how he does it. Of course
there might be small tweaks you can do to speed it up, but that concept is the
fastest I know of. Anytime I've tried to implement real attack tables, it's
always been slower than the on-the-fly detection (whether 0x88, bitboards,
16x16, whatever). YMMV.
