After Doublecheck 3.4, I renamed my engine Discocheck (starting with 3.5). Many reasons for that choice:
- what used to be double check extensions and specific treatments in the search, actually became discovered check instead.
- Discocheck is chess slang for discovered check
- it contains disco and sounds like discotheque, which I found amusing

So in that vein, I should name the version with disco bands. You know MacOSX and Ubuntu name their versions with animal names
- DC 3.5 would be ABBA
- DC 3.6 would be Boney M

For the next version, I'll neeed a disco band starting ewith a "C". Any ideas ?

PS: jokes aside, Discocheck 3.6 is out at

if anyone is interested.

Congrats Lucas! Smile

A name starting with C? Hmmm... What about DiscoCheck Carlos? I guess only you, me and our country fellows can really appreciate this music of angels ^^

BTW, didn't you like the Treeplecheese name your engine got last april fools' day? Laughing

Yeah, I remember Carlos. But I'm not sure it qualifies as disco music. Any expert opinion on this ?
