Brutus 8_04 bugfix released

[Stephan Vermeire]

Hi all,

Here it is, the upgrade to the annoying time-out problems reported by several people. Brutus v8_4 is available now for download at the usual adress:

http://www.xs4all.nl/~vermeire/brutus.html

v8_04:
* bug update: fixed several UCI communication-related problems. (Under winboard, the strength is comparable to 8.02). The engine is named WITHOUT any dots ('.'signs), it appears that polyglot is hanging otherwise.

Please report any bugs that are still bugging you! (Without help, I would never have found and solved these bugs so quickly).
