Andrew Hi Andrew: Pepito you can find at: http://www.winboardengines.de/pepito/ Pepito uses a two-part table with different replacement schemes which appears very similar to what Crafty does. I use a more simple single table based on what Bruce Moreland gives on his site: http://www.seanet.com/~brucemo/topics/topics.htm I figured by keeping it simple it would be more likely to work :( I saw your post above. I'm at work (yes, my priorities are screwed up) and will look to see what I do when I get home. Dan H.
