aloha!
i have posted muse 0.898 on my website (www.fierz.ch/muse.htm). it fixes a bug (i hope) related to time controls in muse 0.897b2, and i have also added a small .ini file to configure hashtable size, book on/off and resign on/off.
muse is not a great engine, but if you enjoy playing around with weaker engines it is right for you
cheers

So the claim

muse is not a great engine, but if you enjoy playing around with weaker engines it >is right for you

has to be taken with some skepticism!

I guess Muse is going to have many fans.

hi telmo,
muse has a very optimistic king safety evaluation. this can sometimes lead to spectacular games, but often it will just sac a piece for very little or nothing at all (like in this game, i suspect...). i will have to work on this!
cheers
