As an aside to this, I would be interested in a program that allows setting up more pieces of one type than you can legally get. For example, there's a chess variant "Knight's game" where all pieces but the kings are replaced with knights. But as you can't legally have more than 10 knights on one side, I cannot play such a game with commercial programs. (Does WinBoard allow setting up such a position in the first place? I know Fritz GUI doesn't.) --- Shep
