Subject: CEBoard vs Arena

Hi,

I have added today the support for auto232 in CEBoard as we discussed the other
day ; the corresponding build (752) can be download from CEBoard's page
(http://www.zanchetta.net/CEBoard).

To make an automatic test between an engine running under Arena and a Pocket PC
Engine running under CEBoard :
1) Connect the Pocket PC and the PC with a serial cable
2) Start CEBoard : click on the right icon (external board), choose "Auto232)
and select either "drop game" or "Autosave game" for game termination. Click OK.
Select the engine and its level.
3) Start Arena, goto "Extra" and "autoplay" ; set Arena as Master and start the
match.

Note 1 : it is the first time I have used Arena and I hope this is the standard
way to run a match against an auto232 engine.
Note 2 : it does not seem to work under Fritz 9. As I never used F9 to do engine
matches, I don't know if there is something special to do to get the same
behavior.
