Subject: Thanks to all

Thanks to all who responded to my request for help with my move generator.

I found 3 bugs:
1. I had dropped some bits from the knightATTACKS bitboard array on the floor.
Picked them back up and put them back into the array and this works much better.

2. I had an 'if (square = A8)' instead of 'if (square == A8)' hidden in the
castle code

3. I had one of my pawn attack board shifting the wrong direction to check for
attacks.

All better now.
Still a bit slow (on my 500 mHz computer with a 100 mHz FSB).


I appreciate all who responded and offered assistance.
BTW. anyone who has seen a real benifit from the ongoing discussion on this
board should through their $0.02 in, literally.

William
