Be5 Ke8 16. a6 Qxa6 They weren't already? They should've looked something like this: Depth Score Time PV 5(5) 30 T=0 pe4e5 Ng8f6... 6(5) 21 T=1 ... 6 23 T=1 ... and so on. If you view them with word-wrap on, that may be the problem. With word-wrap off, they should look OK. >Anyway - any sort of tidying up makes them better than the form in which they're >presented on the IBM site, so let me express thanks and applause to Jeremiah! I only wish I could've gotten to the rest of them, but they were just taking way too long. :( I may format them the same, but then leave the move format the same, because that's what takes the longest to edit. If I could find some nice, easy way to convert their PVs to SAN, I could do all the logs relatively quickly.
