   Hey guys,... I think the intent of the Principle Variation Search is to
search it first and thus establish the best alpha/beta values for maximum
pruning. What I don't understand is how to get the search to return a whole PV
instead of just the best move at ply 1. I currently just use full width
alpha/beta minimax and I think that adding PV would be a great improvement for
move ordering. Any help would be much appreciated.

A Boby.
