Wow, was it really that simple?

Thanks.

So I take it you just would redraw the last line on the screen then, padding with the space characters as needed?

I'll check it out.

Here are some papers of Jonathan Schaeffer that touch on chess programming.

How about this one?

Funny you mention that, I am building more checkers endgames right now, using a 64-bit checkers engine. It might seem odd to use 64-bits for a game with ...

Hoping Dr. Hyatt still comes on this board now and then.

I can remember, ages ago when I studied the Crafty code, there was a clever way to "redraw" just one part of the screen. Crafty updates it's time, or replaces parts of its PV, without having the screen scroll vertically.

Thanks, but that contained no instructions on how to do it for the Fritz GUI.

I'm interested in running matches from one fixed position, not a suite of positions either randomly or sequentially.

I was looking to run some engine matches, no opening books, from fixed starting positions.

Example: 1. e4 c5 2. d4 cxd4 3. c3

I'm not sure how to do this.

Does anyone know how to set this up?

Thanks in advance.

He's so full of himself and he actually believes that his moderation is perfect.

If your statement was true, Graham Banks wouldn't have apologized.

If you were correct, I would agree with you.

Was he apologizing for being full of himself, or for being a lousy moderator?

He apologized for his ...
