Hi David,

did you manage to track down the bug that I told you about from an earlier version?

Regards, Graham.

Thanks, David. Xpdnt is a good blitz engine, awaiting Jim Ablett's compile.

Well, maybe ...

There was a dastardly bug where certain moves [eg., hash, killer, etc] were permitted EVEN when they were the opponents pieces! :shock:

This could lead to strange behavior :) and even cause Xpdnt to disallow certain opponent's moves [particularly of pieces it had appropriated].

So, I hope so.

Hi Swami,

The file containes a win32 compile [not as good as Jim's I'm sure].
