Scorpio 2.3 (wb) JA by Daniel Shawul
http://dshawul.googlepages.com/home

Intel compiler 11 (x64) & Msvc 8 (win32) pgo builds.

(from readme):
Changes
-------
* Many changes in this version. Major change is use of bitboards in eval and move generation
using magic bitboards. It is far from done since I am a newbie to this stuff.
Many eval features were removed in the process which I will add on later through testing
Hopefully it improves things in the future otherwise it is bye bye slow attack tables :)
Thank you Ed but I feel the need for speed ;)

* A small bug in alpha-beta is removed. After all this years I never thought I would find a bug
there. Oh well it is fixed now so i won't mention it.

* Other small changes here and there. Hope they improved things cause I neither have the resource
or the patience to test. Testing is my weakest attribute.
