Hi José,

I haven´t tried history pruning yet. But save your time for usefull tests.

Usually the move list differs completely betwenn positions in check and not in
check:
When in check you can only
1. Move the king out of check
2. Move pieces between king and checking piece
3. Capture checking piece

Usually all these moves have very low ratings in the history table because they
are only useful for moving out of check. The best examples are moves of the king
in midgame.

Greetings Volker
