FRUIT(6)																  FRUIT(6)

NAME

       fruit - Fruit is a UCI-only chess engine.

SYNOPSIS

       fruit

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the fruit program.

       Fruit is an UCI-only chess engine. This distribution comes up with an opening book.

       Fruit  and  other  UCI  engines	can  be  used  with  XBoard  or WinBoard (or other xboard-compatible interfaces) with the help of PolyGlot
       (UCI-to-xboard adapter). Another well known frontend is scid, which has a UCI capable interface.

OPTIONS

       These program does NOT follow the usual GNU command line syntax, but can be fed with options with a personal config file which can be  read
       by  the	polyglot helper software. The author himself says "You are advised to skip this section unless you are completely crazy about com-
       puter chess." For a complete description of these UCI commands, see the readme files.

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.
