I remember there has been a format EOC change, if you have Rebel 11 or Century 4 MEGA then use these EOC chess trees instead. >I see on rebel new web page (http://members.home.nl/matador/rebel12.htm) that >there should be support for managing the opening books natively.

You can create and maintain user-books (*.RBM), the main-book (*.MVS) is non-editable. >If I use the ChessPartner gui opening book tool, I get only the possibility to >create a book for the chess partner interface, not a rebel native book. >Hence, I would like to know if somebody knows how to produce (or where to get) a >better rebel book. Suggestion: - Convert a native Rebel book to CP format. - Modify this book according to your wishes. - Use this book with Rebel, doing: Properties -> Books -> Use GUI books >How to produce an EOC. There is a DOS utilty to create EOC chess trees, see: http://www.rebel.nl/edsoft.htm Also some sample EOC chess trees are offered for download. >Does anybody understand how one should operate the panel which comes pressing >F4? > >E.g.: for mostof the settings I get a message like "<some action> done" but I >see nothing happen. >I have tried to import a pgn file from this panel but I failed.

See the README file, actions are reported in the engine:misc window. >The only progress I managed to do was to use an external rebel book, I got some >old books from rebel old site that seem to work fine.

You will need to use the DOS version for that: Books -> Join opening books My best, Ed
