Thanks for the update. Does this support multipv analysis? Does this support opening epd files?

It does support multipv analysis. In fact it only supports multipv analysis, with fixed count of 4 lines. This is a compromise and a limitation, and I plan to make it more flexible, hopefully before too much longer.

It doesn't support epd files. In fact I had to google to find out what epd files were. There's some misleading information out there - some sources indicate that epd files are essentially just FEN text lines, one position per line. I started to write a little program for you to convert epd -> pgn on this basis as a work around (it should be a ten minute job). But later I found that it's a lot more complicated than this, with many extra "opcodes" defined. So sorry.
