>How to use the personalyties
>
>In the engines properties page there are a large number of parameters which can
>be 'tuned'. The default value for each parameter is 100 which means 100%.
>
>The native engine can load these parameters from personality files. These files
>are in the engines directory and have the .per extension. To load a personality
>simply select it from the dropdown box and click the Apply button.
>The personality files are simple text files which can be edited with notepad. To
>create a new personality copy one of the existing files and edit it in notepad.
>Two sample files are included; 'Default.per' and 'BeanCounter.per'. The
>Default.per is the all 100% file and is supposed to give the strongest and
>balanced play.
>
>The UCI version of the engine does not support the personality files but is does
>allow setting the parameters via UCI options.
