Subject: CM6000 - Think Lines - Depth - Score

Author: John R. Menke, Sr.

In Chessmaster 6000, Windows menu, Think Lines window, the Depth values are
displayed like:
     01/05
     01/06
     02/07
     02/08
     .....
I notice that if I set the Selective Search option in personality to 10, the
first Depth number remains a 01/ until the second number gets above /11.  If I
set the Selective Search to a small value, then the first number in Depth gets
bigger faster.  I can't find a precise explanation of those Depth numbers in the
operating instructions.  Presumably the first number is the ply depth of a
complete search, and the second number is the ply depth of a Selective Search.
Is that correct?

The Score is displayed next to the Depth.  Presumably the Score is based upon
the Selective Search (not the complete search).  Is that correct?

Thanks!
