Hi Bakunin,

I often play the Najdorf variation in the Sicilian Defense; but lately have been enjoying more modern openings for fun (1. Nf3 ... ) as both black or white. Generally, I don't enjoy Blitz chess; and I do tend to do post game (over the board games with friends) with computers; currently I use HIARCS on both the Mac and iPhone6. I also have other chess engines such as Stockfish and Deep Shredder, but have become an increasing big fan of HIARCS. I'm not rated above 2000, I think my last USCF rating years ago was around 1700.

Currently, I play about once a week over the board with a good friend of mine; and I also play a bit with another friend on my iPhone using "Chess Time" which is a multi-player chess app that is specifically not for blitz chess and runs on both IOS and Android (and the app is free as well as to play). Generally, I don't play with "strangers" as I like to put a face and personality to my chess playing.

If you install the Chess Time app my username is "neounix" and I'm happy to play with you or any forum member using the Chess Time app (IOS / iTunes screen capture attached), as that apps seems to work best for me and my schedule. (Android version of Chess Time)

glaurung

GLAURUNG(6)															       GLAURUNG(6)

NAME

       glaurung - free UCI chess engine, to calculate chess moves

SYNOPSIS

       glaurung

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents the glaurung command.

       glaurung is an UCI chess engine, to calculate chess moves

       Opening book

       This  version of Glaurung has experimental support for PolyGlot opening books.  For information about how to create such books, consult the
       PolyGlot documentation.	Currently, Glaurung requires that the book file is named book.bin and is placed in Glaurungs working directory.

       More than one CPU

       Beginning with version 2-epsilon/3, Glaurung has support for up to four CPUs.  Because the program currently  cannot  automatically  detect
       the  number of CPUs on your computer, it uses only a single search thread by default.  If your computer has two or more CPUs (this includes
       dual-core CPUs like the Intel Core Duo or the AMD Athlon 64 X2), you should set the "Threads" UCI parameter to the number of CPUs to obtain
       optimal performance.

OPTIONS

       This program does NOT follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes.

SEE ALSO

       Communication with UCI commands is documented by "The UCI Communication Protocol" in /usr/share/doc/glaurung/engine-interface.txt.

AUTHOR

       glaurung was written by <Romstad Tord <tord@glaurungchess.com>>.

       This manual page was written by Oliver Korff <ok@xynyx.de>, for the Debian project (but may be used by others).
