hi dieter,

thanks for the hints - but it's a bit late to try and do this a couple of hours
before the tournament ;-)

besides, i still have to prepare for a game of chess tomorrow - myself, not my
program...

i'll try to make it for one of the friday night (european time) tournaments
sometime!

cheers
  martin
