I don't use the Rebel DOS program. Hello Gabor, If you are talking about just the latest default Rebel.eng files, I think they are almost identical apart from [Pruning = MISC_66] that Ed introduced to counter the Diep-Rebel bug from the last Leiden tournament. That is the only new thing I see in Rebel.eng that is switched on. [Personality = REBEL.ENG] * Rebel 12.00.02 (January 2004) [Pawn Value = 100] [Knight Value = 100] [Bishop Value = 100] [Rook Value = 100] [Queen Value = 100] [King Safety = 150] [Mobility = 100] [Pawn Structure = 100] [Passed Pawns = 100] [Pins = 100] [Bishop Pair = 100] [Chess Knowledge = 100] [Attractiveness = 101] [Attacking = 100] [Strength of Play = 100] [Draw Contempt Factor = 0.00] [Selective Search = 100] [Search Technique = NULLMOVE] [Engine Learner = off] * off|on [Book Learner = aggressive] * off|passive|moderate|strong|aggressive [Position Learner = on] * off|on [Extended Book Learner = off] * off|read|write|read&write [Pruning = MISC_25] * [Pruning = MISC_37] * [Pruning = MISC_40] * [Pruning = MISC_66] * [Center Control = 25] * 25 [Bishop Mobility = 25] * 25 [Right to Move = 75] * 75 [Strong Squares = 125] * 125 [ANTI-GM = OFF] [EVALUATION = SMART] * NORMAL|SMART [Extensions (remaining)= 3] [Extensions (checks)= 0] [Extensions (captures)= 0] But in the readme.txt that comes with Rebel Dos Ed introduces some other new switches that (I think) will only work in Rebel Dos, like [Pruning = MISC-03] * Speed-up (+4%) which I understand to be something different from [Pruning = MISC_03] * Speed-up (+4%) (If I am wrong Ed could you please clarify?) I have both these options in my own modified .eng file but the first one [Pruning = MISC-03] * Speed-up (+4%) should not have any effect in the Rebel Windows program. So short answer; not everything is interchangeable. The .exe file is not interchangeable without weakening Rebel Windows (new .exe is also pretty large, 7 Mb!) Eelco
