Hi,

By the looks of things there's not a lot of dev discussion on here at the
moment, but anyway:

I'm currently in the process of embedding gnuchess 5 into a chess
board.  Gnuchess5 likes to use a disk to record moves, and store the book
files.  Can the book be eliminated, and simply suffer a performance
hit? Is this even remotely straightforward?  

I'd really like to just modify it so that the opening book is kept in
flash, and just isn't updated all the time.  (a ramdisk can be used for
in-game stuff)

Any comments? queries? insults?

Please mail me,
Karl Palsson
