Subject: detecting and evaluating pins

aloha,

i have a question about pins. pins are a rather important feature in chess; some
of them are not so bad, some are deadly. i just happened to chat briefly with
anthony cozzie on ICC, and he said he didn't do any pin detection. i detect
pins, but i don't evaluate whether a pin is not so bad or deadly. my questions
are:
-> are you detecting pins in your program?
-> if yes, do you try to distinguish between different pins?

cheers
  martin
