Hi Pablo,
Just an experimental version that you can try out - It maybe weaker, I don't know. It'll probably need a lot of testing to find out and I haven't got the time, so I posted it here. The options I've enabled are switched off/not used in the official version. I've disabled Razoring cutoffs again - this had a definite impact on performance. I think it's killer feature is that it writes a little pgn logfile of all the games it plays. {English humour!}

Bye,
Jim.
