So I gave up even on this comaratively small rest. No chance to do it completely with Chest, provided the complete depth in fact is around 18. May be some "special mate mode" can help here, but may be not. Cheers, Heiner >Daniel > >http://www.talkchess.com/forums/1/message.html?388552 > >We'll solve this mate yet!;-)
