Instead of doing that, I'll pass you my perft unique generator, which consists of a perl script, a shell script and a binary. I no longer have the source for the binary, but it's basically a stripped down perft program which just takes in a fen and generates the fen strings for the next ply.

Note that this is a very inefficient generator and only good up to d8. Anything beyond that will need a better design. You just need to feed it d0.txt and it will generate the rest as in the shell script.

Thank you very much.

Browsing the forum I found that Steven Edwards did actually give some link to his Google drive in this post
