     Hi Mike
     Many thanks for your hints. I have just realized before
     your posting that the path "c:\eigene dateien\tbs" does
     not work. Above all I was somewhat confused as the download
     at Robert Hyatt's site did include neither a crafty.exe nor
     a crafty.rc configuration file. I had to download Dann Corbit's
     version as I could not find an exe on Hyatt's site. Your
     download file however contained the winboard and UCI version
     of Crafty. As you can see I am a beginner with Crafty non
     native versions. I am going to study the documentation I
     have downloaded.
     Kurt
