(I have not yet implemented pondering so it does wrestle with itself for control of the the CPU). The problem I had with ZZZZZZ and the Crafty port is that the time controls were not strictly observed. I also had occasional bugs in there messages (not that my didn't requre a lot of debugging). The only difficult now, is that Exachess 2.0 has difficulty with draw by insufficient material- to be fixed in the next update. Overall, I like it a lot as a way to test changes in Screamer until I have time to implement the ICC interface for on line testing. BTW, I use PowerPlant for the interface, and the Exachess code is implemented in conjunction with PowerPlant handling of Apple Events. William wbryant@ix.netcom.com
