Tablebase class name list available
I had CookieCat output its list of tablebase class names for size two through ten and write these to a file. If you are doing tablebase or endgame classification work, you might be interested. For a limited time only, see the text file TBClassNames at the https://public.me.com/chessnotation site.

I think you don't need to probe KQQQQQQQQQK, because if you are on the side with the queens, you are probably going to win (if you avoid stalemates).

Re: Tablebase class name list available
In my program Symbolic, there is no tablebase class name generator. Instead, I just hard coded the 146 2-5 man class names as the initialization for a static vector of strings and had these parsed during program start-up. So that's one way in which having a class name list can be useful.
But having a generator is more elegant.
