A few bug fixes ...

My tests [1002 1sec+1sec games gauntlet vs Crafty 20.9, Arasan 9.5, and Scorpio 191] went from 31% to 38% roughly 25% increase in score!

No books, no egtb, no learning.

Jim's binaries are up now.

Sure looked strange to click on the ZShare link and see 0 downloads. Woo hoo, first in line. :)

Thanks Jim.

The 'no books, no egtb, no learning' was actually refering to the tourney, so Xpdnt still has it's small book - obook.txt [with spaces]

I hope to find some big juicy evaluation bugs or holes to fix next ...

Hi Graham,

I hope I got rid of that crazy suicidal bug it had ...

Hi Jim,

No x64 build so far.

I'd like including it in my 64 bit tourneys.

Hi Harun,

No speed benefit in compiling 64 bit Xpdnt. Uses 0x88 board rep, not bitboards.

Jim.
