Re: New Chess App
I am looking for chess sources in functional languages. The only one I found yet is small chess program in PicoLisp package. Are there any other open-source chess implementations in Lisp, Scheme, ML, maybe Haskell? There's GNU Chess integration with Emacs, so there's definitely elisp bits in there ...

Re: Saving into another database
I don't mind the behaviour of starting with an empty database (although an option to specify a particular database as one to always start with would be a nice addition), but quite often I find myself firing up HCE to input an idea or position, do some analysis, and then want to save it - but not in...

It turns out that I don't need to make any changes to test that modified version of Stockfish. If the number of pieces on the board meets the configuration (i.e. 6 or less) and Stockfish is analysing the positions it will also report the number of tablebase hits per second checked after the number o...

7) HCE uses online Nalimov tablebases I've got, I think it's 5-man loaded locally as well (whichever count it is that comes to around 7 or 8 Gb and including all the pawns). I did it for the same reason as opting for the downloads as well as the subscription and that is that Internet connectivity a...

Re: Chess Explorer creates new untitled DB on every launch
HIARCS Chess Explorer does not actually create a new database when it launches, it just provides a tab so new games and positions can be entered. Okay so this is what I wish it wouldn't do. From a UI standpoint, the new tab looks like a new untiled empty document (ie a database). It looks a lot lik...

Re: Using Windows UCI engines with HIARCS Mac Chess Explorer
Unfortunately that sample code there didn't compile for me, ... I admit I did not test it. This one compiles for me on Linux with gcc. (It is C, not C++). I get a warning on get_current_dir_name(), though, like I did not #include the right header to declare it. The manual says it should be in unist...

Re: Using Windows UCI engines with HIARCS Mac Chess Explorer
If you would let your wrapper read the string it feeds to system() from a file with a fixed name (say wrapper.ini) in the current directory, people could use it without comiling anything. They would only have to prepare an ini file with the wine command in it. Of course you could have the wrapper a...

This issue was introduced in the Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks update. HCE is unaffected on previous Mac OS versions. Apple are aware of wake from sleep issues with 10.9 which were meant to be resolved in the 10.9.4 update. Some customers have reported this update resolved the issue but a couple of HCE cus...
