Nalimov file integrity tester

Post by Dann Corbit »

I am downloading the Nalimov 6 man EGTB files.
There have been various interruptions and restarts and I am nervous about the correctness of the files.
I seem to recall a routine to validate the correctness of the files.
But I can't seem to find it.
Does anyone know where I might locate it.

But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.

It just died for me too, maybe I should have kept my mouth shut because 800 people suddenly rushed to download.
:shock:
