I have a question about showing arrows:
'Show thinking arrows' is for Analysis, 'Show thinking arrows (Players)' is for playing against an engine, but what is 'Show arrows for other engines' for?
I don't see any effect when checking this option, and I don't find a description of these options in the manual.

ah yes, this is if you use more than one engine for analysis, so by default it only shows arrows for the first (primary) analysis engine

Thanks, now it's clear - I've never tried more than one analysis engine. :)

BTW, good that Myracle supports *.bat/cmd files for engine installation - that makes it very comfortable to use the MessChess engines in my CB-Emu package, because I've included such *.bat files for Hiarcs (that uses the same method):
1) go to the folder MessChess\Hiarcs
2) run 'makeall /name' - this creates a subfolder 'Engines' with all necessary *.bat files
3) now create any subfolder in Myracle\engines (e.g. mess) and copy all *.bat files from the just created folder 'Hiarcs\Engines' into 'Myracle\engines\mess', and then you can add all MessChess engines without having to enter any engine arguments

It's okay, I'll take the risk, it's very important for me and not only for me.
