You might ask this fellow for the pertinent source code:
------------
Notes on CDB's implementation (5/23/98) - Peter Klausler

This file describes some points of interest in the implementation
of my free positional chess database program CDB for Win95/NT,
which is available from http://reality.sgi.com/pmk_craypark.

Also, I believe the winboard source is available, and crafty probably reads pgn.
In fact, any number of chess programs will have this code available.  Of course,
 no two board representations are likely to be the same :)
