I decided to add global varaibles in my redsign of my move generator but it is clear that the programmers who need to fill the missing part should get a clear explanation of the meaning of the relevant global varaibles and they do not need to guess. I do not think that nobody can do it except me. The idea is not practical because I do not want to expose the full structure of my program so it is possible to do the test with another program. Uri
