What is the best GUI for RobboLitto and Toga the Killer?

I want a GUI which in the analysis will show all the lines and not just one.

Is cost a factor, and if so then Arena.

Oouucch. Difficult question. One should test all the GUIs with an engine.
Perhaps giving a test position and asking the question: Is your GUI
capable of showin all analysis lines?

Best,

You will have read in some arguments here and at Rybka forum that Robbolito doesn't support PV yet.

Best,

I use Shredder 10 GUI and it doesn't show all analysis lines, only the best line.

Latest WinBoard displays all variations in multi-PV mode, and allows you to step through the most recent line.

I guess I should extend that so that yu can step through any line, by right-clicking it in the Engine-Output window (to show the final position) and then allowing you to step through it move by move by vertical mouse motion (keeping the right mouse button pressed).

I installed this program and tried to upload RoboLitto but it doesn't work. I don't know how to upload the engine into this Winboard.

Whatever by Chessbase - Deep Rybka 3, Fritz 11 or 12 etc.

OK, the link I gave was to an alpha version, so it comes a bit raw from there. Sorry about that. I had not realized you had no experience with earlier WinBoard versions.

Robbolitto is UCI, not? Then you also need Polyglot, which you should obtain from here. Put it in the same folder as where you put the winboard.exe and robbolitto.exe.

To run Robbolitto oy then should start up WinBoard. This will bring up the startup dialog, where you can specify which engine you want to use. In the "First Engine" field you then would type

robbolito.exe -fUCI

and when you press OK this shoud start up WinBoard with Robbolitto as engine. Make sure the engine-output window is open when you start analyzing.
