Crafty is not only used for playing games, though.  When I generate a book, I
use "100 1".  I do this because when I'm preparing an opening variation (for my
own play) I browse in analysis mode, and see what's been played before.  Of
course, I have to use my own judgement as to where improvments can be made.
