hi bob,

have you tried arena? adding a new engine there is much easier than under
winboard IMO. all you have to do is copy the engine files in a new folder, and
then, when adding a new engine to arena, you have to browse to this folder to
select the engine. much simpler than winboard where you have to deal with
command line parameters and .ini files and what-not...

cheers
