Could you send me to my gmail account (mballicora) the files that Don's utility produces? Those are the ones that look
{engine name 1} move1 move2 move3 etc.
{engine name 2} move1 move2 move3 etc.
I have everything setup in Linux scripts and a C program to process the data, run bootstraps and plot it. I can analyze the whole thing in a minute.

PS: Naum's author, as Don says, told Michael Hart in a private email that he fit Naum's evaluation to Rybka 2. At this point, this similarity is unquestionable. It has been observed by 4 different observers (Don, M. Hart, Adam Hair, and you) with different set of positions and conditions.
Hi Miguel, I have sent you the two *.data files from Don's utility. I am still digesting slowly explanation about Naum, my problem is not similarity with Rybka 2. Similarity even with Rybka 1.0beta is very high, and Strelka sources appeared a year or two before Naum 4.2. The second thing would be that if one can adjust his engine to be similar to another, then his engine must be potentially much stronger than that "another" (can be adjusted even further).

Check your email, I analyzed it and sent it back.
Regarding Naum, I am not making any interpretation, I am just stating what I was told.

Yes, there is a configuration file.
Here is an example configuration file for stockfish 1.8 that I made up:

You can set any option that is configurable by a UCI program.
thank you
what should be the name of the configuration file?
and how do I use it? should I pass it to sim03 as a command line argument?
Hi George,
In this example, I would call the config file Stockfish_1.8.txt.
I use a batch file to run the similarity utility. Here is an example of the type of command I use:

thanks for your help mr hair. I did already figure it out by reading the readme file
I'm making some tests
I would like to make a question: why, when I set a time of 5ms, the test takes way more time with some engines, for example with stockfish, than with others
the time set is always 5ms

If I remember correctly, Stockfish searches 10 plies deep before sending its best move.

I guess 5ms are a little too few. Do you use time adjust for strength? If not, I don't think there is a big difference in convenience using a minimum of 10-20ms.
