Some of the features of Yace are better than any other program, professional or otherwise. Some of the things I particularly like are the excellent annotations at the end of a search using EGTB, the auto feature to play against itself, and this looks like a very good and valuable tool as well. I wish that other programmers would follow your lead. Perhaps you can publish a formal definition of your extensions and some of them might be added to the Winboard and UCI protocols.
