Crafty 24.0

[bob]

Finally got all the changes and cleanup done. A few notes:

(1) Look at the new Makefile first. I now only have two O/S choices. one is -DUNIX which is what I use for my macs and linux boxes. The other choice is to leave the -DUNIX off, which makes it a windows program.

(2) Quite a few of the -D options have changed. The normal Makefile has comments that explain each one. I release the Makefile exactly as I use it, currently on my mac boxes and linux boxes.

(3) there is a Makefile.xp that ought to work, but without any windows boxen around, I am not certain. If you spot anything particularly ugly wrong with this Makefile, please let me know...

I've been running this version for several months. Lots of changes everywhere, particularly in the parallel search code that has been cleaned up and simplified (and speeded up as well).

The source is at the usual place:

I gave up on doing executables years ago. Too many different operating system versions, too many different hardware platforms (SSE, no-SSE, etc). I provide source and let you roll your own. There will be executables around pretty soon.

I've placed x64 builds at: http://www.kikrtech.com

The x86 builds will be coming later today. I'm working on bettering the PGO compiles for that platform.

In the profile target in the makefile, I think

Code: Select all

@echo "#!/bin/sh" > runprof

is preferable to

Code: Select all

@echo "#!/bin/csh" > runprof

(Appears twice in the target.)

I did learn that csh is not installed by default on my linux system, and that the default is dash.

I will look. At one point there was some distinctly "csh commands" in the runprof stuff...

Link on the website works here? Are you sure you don't have a cached version of the page?

I don't know about this cached version.
Anyway both works now the web link and the direct link. Thanks.

Yes, that's where they are.

Anyway, I made a PGO build, which seems to work well. Will need to study the split-depth-related commands and try some tweaking ...
