Hi Lex,

I wonder!
Are all the engines compatible to ChessPartner GUI?
Autoplayer games, I know :-)

Do you have more resutls vs. engines which supported the standard protocols WB
and UCI, much more important for the most readers. Think so because the most
tourneys you find in WWW are tourneys with WB / UCI engines so I must thinking
that the most users have other interest.

Would like to see resutls vs.
Aristarch, List, ProDeo, Sjeng, SOS ... the TOP 10 from the WB / UCI engines as
results vs. only this four programs ... from all which are available ... which
don't support the standard engine protcols (Fritz, Junior, Hiarcs and Tiger).

Easy why I wrote this:
Gandalf 6 supported the two main protocls WB and UCI and this is the reason that
it would be great to have results vs. Engines which have also such a good engine
support.

Why I wrote this:
I can not many things say to the results vs. Fritz, Hiarcs and Junior because
it's simple ... the programs have a bad engine protocol support and I can only
test under a GUI (Fritz GUI) which have a bad WB support (houndrets of other
engines don't work 1:1).

You can say ...
But Frank, thinking on SSDF and thinking how strong are the engines Fritz,
Junior, Hiarcs and Tiger. You will find a lot of friends of commercial software
with such words I am sure but if this persons which give such comments are
honest this group of persons will give a comment ...

Yes Frank you have right!
Much more interesting is Fritz, Junior, Tiger and Hiarcs if I can run this
engines under ChessPartner :-), ChessAssistant, ChessAcademy, ShredderClassic,
WinBoard and and yes ... Arena!

Only the "commercial user supportler" gave in the past such bad comments. But
the "commercial user supportler" are thinking all in a still minute ...

I cann't write it in a forum or the companys don't send me the software for free
or for a good price but Frank have right. I have much more possibilitys if
Fritz, Hiarcs, Tiger and Junior supported the UCI or WB procotol.

COMPATIBILITY, the topic I like ... now six years :-)
And perhaps the day is comming the companys are thinking about users and here
wishes!

Best
Frank
