Crafty v19.15 SE Ramat-Gan
Crafty v19.15 SE Ramat-Gan is a modified version of Crafty, copyrighted
by Bob Hyatt, that participated in the 12 World Computer Chess
Championships held recently at Ramat-Gan, Israel. I consider Bob Hyatt
a dear friend and one of the great computer programmers and thinkers of
all time. He has been involved in computer chess programming for over
30 years and is considered by many a "Hall of Famer".
It is with his permission and his great generosity that I am permitted
to distribute for free his chess program Crafty with a few tweaks of my
own. For those that wonder what SE stands for , it is simply
Special Edition.
There are now over 200 subscribers from over 30 countries to the
Crafty SE series. It is available by sending me an e-mail with words
"include" in the subject heading. You may remove yourself from the
anonymous mailing list by sending me an e-mail with the words "remove"
in the subject heading. Also, should an email bounce back to me, you
are also removed from the list. I have been advised that my Crafty SE
downloads can be as high as 1000 per month.
You may find a copy of Crafty SE at Peter Skinner's Crafty site
http://www.webkikr.com/news.php or at Leo Dijksman's website
http://wbec-ridderkerk.nl/
If you have any Crafty tips or tricks, please e-mail them to me and I
will include them in the next edition. All contributors will be
recognized unless you wish to classified as an "anonymous" contributor.
Crafty is copyrighted by Bob Hyatt. Please type "help copyright" at the command
prompt to read the copyright.
Hit the return key to review the SE command options included with
Crafty v19.15 SE Ramat-Ga! In the future, you may type "help SE commands".
Please enjoy Crafty v19.15 SE Ramat-Ga and drop me a line when you a chance.
Best,
Michael Byrne
