Works on Winboard.
It uses null moves (I am having chronic problems with them), no hash (except
pawn hash), quiesce, futility pruning, 1 killer move, and rotated bitboards.

On my P233 I always get 100,000-200,000 NPS in the middle game, somewhat more in
the endgame. It's book during this match had 201 hand entered positions :-P.
Today I added the ability to read non-commented PGN files.

It is buggy, but I'd be willing to send you copy. Actually, I would be thrilled
if you would help me find bugs.
