I don't know.

But the difference between SC3 and SC4 is that they removed the "Continuous Display" feature on engine panel, so any improvement that they added anywhere was nullified because this unique feature is a reason for using the GUI.

Shredder Classic 3 is the best because of this.

I just use the actual linux engines in Xboard, not the Shredder GUI.
Classic 4 engine was only 32 bit.
Classic 5 engine is only 64 bit.

Yes, I've been using Shredder Classic 3 daily for the last 12 years and consider it the best GUI around thanks to how fast you can do what you can do in it.
