I'm not sure.  I just reformatted it to what all my other EPD files look like,
which I believe is according to the standard.  It may be that yours work
perfectly well...
I also changed a couple of the ID strings for the ones that the move was Bxh6
but the ID said Bxh3 or something. :)

I definitely agree.  If a program can output EPD strings, it shouldn't be too
hard to make the output conform to the standard.
