Hello Bob,

why don“t you patch your winboard-engine to work with fritz ? The engine is
already running with full tablebase-support and using the crafty-book. The major
problem still is, that at every move the hashtables are cleared. But I think
this problem could be solved easily. Roland Pfister, the author of Patzer, has
already patched his code of his winboard-engine, so that the hashtables are not
cleared. I think patzer reocognizes the "fritz"-command, which is send to the
engine at the startup.


Best regards
Kai
