Thanks a lot, Dr.Muller and Allard. :D

Allard just sent me a winboard compatible version of Bright, also slightly improved strength-wise. No bugs found so far. It's playing well...even beats Crafty slight more time in blitz than it used to under ChessPartner...

So I guess I will use winboard then, I'm looking forward to the CCT version of Winboard though. If it's already out, please let me know.

If you are not afraid of an alpha version, you could try the one at my website:

http://home.hccnet.nl/h.g.muller/alpha.tst

Save it as winboard.exe. If you run it with the -autoKibitz flag it both kibitzes the last engine thinking-output line for any move to the ICS, (suppressing it in your own ICS window when it is echoed), and diverts the engine kibitz of the opponent to the engine-output window.

When observing a game, the kibitz of both engines should go to the engine-output window.

I have no complaints yet about the opening book, I hope we can see few pleasant surprises in the tournament... :)

Also, I'll tell you how it does in Dr.Muller's warm up blitz tournament this sunday...
