25 |
* identified as "Crafty" to anyone playing it (on a chess server as one * |
26 |
* example). Personal use does not allow anyone to enter this into a chess * |
27 |
* tournament where other program authors are invited to participate. IE you * |
28 |
* can do your own local tournament, with Crafty + other programs, since this * |
29 |
* is for your personal enjoyment. But you may not enter Crafty into an * |
30 |
* event where it will be in competition with other programs/programmers * |

* Crafty is the "son" (direct descendent) of Cray Blitz. it is designed * |
34 |
* totally around the bit-board data structure for reasons of speed of ex- * |
35 |
* ecution, ease of adding new knowledge, and a *significantly* cleaner * |
36 |
* overall design. it is written totally in ANSI C with some few UNIX system * |
37 |
* calls required for I/O, etc. * |
