Matthias, > I read somewhere that some castlings tags of X-FEN are 4 characters long, > while some are 5. If that is true, then that is not good at all. > Shredder-FEN does not have such a nasty problem. a) that simply is a cosmetic problem, thus absolutely irrelevant; b) there have to exist at least three equal colored rooks before, two of them unmoved, and the opponent must have tolerated a promotion without ever having moved one of his rooks and king - this all is very unrealistic; c) that part of X-FEN could be easily changed, because less than 1/1000000 po- sitions are affected and NO starting array. But SMK refuted that compromise; d) X-FEN has no nasty problem with compatibility. Reinhard.
