Discocheck "Boney M" is out
After Doublecheck 3.4, I renamed my engine Discocheck (starting with 3.5). Many reasons for that choice:
- what used to be double check extensions and specific treatments in the search, actually became discovered check instead.
- Discocheck is chess slang for discovered check
- it contains disco and sounds like discotheque, which I found amusing
So in that vein, I should name the version with disco bands. You know MacOSX and Ubuntu name their versions with animal names
- DC 3.5 would be ABBA
- DC 3.6 would be Boney M
For the next version, I'll neeed a disco band starting ewith a "C". Any ideas ?
PS: jokes aside, Discocheck 3.6 is out at
http://wbec-ridderkerk.nl/html/details1 ... Check.html
if anyone is interested.

A name starting with C? Hmmm... What about DiscoCheck Carlos? I guess only you, me and our country fellows can really appreciate this music of angels ^^
BTW, didn't you like the Treeplecheese name your engine got last april fools' day?

The link text says 3.6, but the contents is still 3.5.1.
Nevertheless, I noticed I had not made an Android version since your name change, so I put the downloadable discocheck compiled for ARM at UCI and XBoard engines for Android.
