Other news:
1.-the last week I tested a superb new wersion of a well-known chess engine. Now, its 32-bit 1CPU version is over Ktulu 9. Stay tuned !
2.- I have bought and tested a nice chess app: Chess 2013 of Mr. Filip Hofer/Czech Republic. The app is written in Java. A nice design , a lot of levels and an interesting style of play of its engine. I am sure in the next editions will be some enhancements ( support for the UCI protocol, eng vs eng matches capability and many more). I already changed an email with its kind and young author.
Below is my first contact with this new chess engine (on HCP level):
