I noticed a segmentation fault running the Mac version upon program exit. The mac version runs fine but it needs to be fixed. Any help welcome.

Grab its code or binaries from https://sourceforge.net/projects/belofte/
Android (thanks Archimedes) binaries have been published. Mac intel as well. Still lacking Raspberry and Apple silicon, amongst others.
I also hope to improve playing level and style in next releases. A lot of work remaining here.

I tried building in Visual Studio Community but gave 359 error messages. Granted I'm new to VS so will keep trying. Anxious to try this out.

Tried building with VS Community, msys/mingw, even a cross compiler no luck. Builds easily in linux though and I have it playing out some games with the nemorino_net_16.nnue :) looking good so far.

    Had no problems with gcc in msys2 a few days ago, but that was in windows.
