When I run Gnuches5.02 against Crafty18.13 on either win32 or Linux with WinBoard, I have noticed something strange. Immediately after loading the second chess program, Winboard flashes a message on the status line indicating White mates(white being Crafty). Then the game begins and ya da ya da. Is Crafty computing the entire game from the outset? How does it KNOW white mates? When I reverse the order of engines (white being Gnuches5) there is no flash and the game continues etc. But so far Gnuchess has yet to beat Crafty ever. There are probably some tweaks and parameters I am not using...I haven't had time yet to study both manuals. Strange I'm using a 1 Ghz PIII with 500K mem. any ideas. Thanks in advance Daniel
