I am interested in knowing what the NULL move algorithm really is....
Can someone post the algorithm on this news group.  I looked at the article by 
D.F. Beal in Artificial intelligence (appeared sometime in 1990), but I am still 
not clear on the idea of the Null move.  What kind of improvements does the NULL
move bring about in GNU chess.
