I tested this and it works. You need an InBetween version 1.6 or higher.
Probably from end of 1993.

I put up my latest build at:
http://home.online.no/~malin/sjakk/download/InBetween1.8.zip

I tested with this in 'InBetween.ini'

;**********
[InBetween]
Commandline := ProDeo.exe w4 rebel.eng
ThreadPriority := low

[Client2Client]
protover 2 := feature done=0 myname="ProDeo 1.1" setboard=1 done=1
;************

Leave out the threadpriority line if you are running computer matches (maybe
best to run it without InBetween then too), but for analysis it is nice to have.

Setting ThreadPriority to low is setting it to 'BelowNormal' like Fritz etc. do.
