I started my program a couple years ago, so I was one of the lucky ones who was able to study Crafty's source, and develop my own implementation of the ideas within.

I owe a huge debt to Dr. Hyatt, and I'm sure there are others who feel the same. -- James >Can anyone explain to me why someone would want to download the source code >files and build Crafty from the source code, rather than simply downloading the >executable and book files?
