Follow the links: computer chess resource center->computer chess link->freeware and shareware program. If you can read the C language, you will find that Tom's program is easy to understand. I translated TSCP in a interpreted language called EUPHORIA. EUPHORIA is easier to learn than C and more powerfull than QBASIC (I believe). A free version of the interpreter is available on the WEB (www.members.aol/Euphoria). BTW, you can download my version of TSCP from the EUPHORIA web page. It is not the latest version (I'm still working on it) but the source code is close to the C version. Good Luck N.B.
