I looked at the command overview of ICC and the only thing I saw was 'loadfen', and nothing on epd. I'm using (and programming) under W98, and FEN is fine with me, will try that tonight! Using the W98 clipboard beats copying the pgn from the screen to a file and reloading the file in my chess program. BlitzIn displays a nice window per game, showing the board/moves/comments. You can copy the comments from the game-window, but not the position or moves. But I don't use the latest version, so maybe that has changed in the meantime. BTW, how do the computerchess freaks analyse a game of other programs with there own program, do they have another special direct kinda way, without copying stuff? I saw eg Bruce comment on the Shredder-LG game. How does he do that ? Bruce ? cheers, Paul
