Also, very happy to follow your instructions, which means stating I am solving a question from a book and possibly the question itself ( correct?).

None of my work is "homework", as I'm not in school nor getting graded and such. Simply learning for learning sake.

Thanks
Not a problem. (The keys on my keyboard seem to move while I'm typing sometimes too. Smilie )

Yes, stating that you are a self-taught student working on a question from a book, citing the book, and quoting the question always helps.

We are all hoping to learn from others on this site, and hopefully, help others learn from our experiences; that's what we're all here to do.

NAME
Phalanx - Chess playing program SYNOPSIS
phalanx [options] [<moves> <minutes> [<increment in seconds>]] phalanx [options] [<seconds per move>] phalanx bench phalanx bcreate [options] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the phalanx program. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution (but may be used by others), because the original program does not have a manual page. phalanx is a chess playing program. It is partially xboard compatible. Under xboard, it can play games, force & undo moves, and show thinking. In this version, you cannot set positions with xboard. It is also possible to run phalanx without xboard. Do phalanx -? to get a list of command line options. One important command of pha- lanx's ASCII interface is help. phalanx uses (traditional) 10x12 board implementation. There are three often used board implementations: "8x8" (GNU Chess), "bitboard" (Crafty), and "10x12" (Nimzo, Phalanx). In short, "10x12" is easy to implement and the code is small (==fast on PC). Opening book is small, simple, hand-written. OPTIONS
