i agree, that would be very interessting. i also have never tested it.
and again. i have never said that toga ist stronger than fruit!!
i only tried some minor changes and tested this changes and noticed that these
changes seemed to increase the playing strenght a little bit.
further test from other persons seem to confirm it.
but i have another question. is in chess programming the quantity of changed
code a proof of the playing strength? i also have never said that i have
invented something new in the enhancements. it is all well known. but it seem to
work with fruit very well

please donĀ“t discuss anymore. toga is not worth to discuss about it. i think
everybody has his own arguments. and no argument is wrong. you can see it from
to sides.
