I'm not real clear on why you need two "ep squares," though. Just set the ep square whenever a pawn moves two spaces, and set it to "invalid" on any other move. Say black moves "e5", setting the ep square to e6. White moves Nf3, setting the ep square to invalid. Now it's imossible for black to move to the ep square... What you're doing may be fine, just a suggestion... :-) James
