ShredderUCI also allows winboard programs and UCI programs to run under it and it has not the problem of losing on time after 256 moves because the interface send wrong information to the engines.

I am curious if Fritz is going to add a WB protocol support because that would mean it will inavoidably be matched against Zappa engines in Zappa GUI. I am afraid that in that case it won't win a single(long) match against Zappa2.0. Uri
