+
+ * Support for Tim Mann's XBoard.
+ * Analysis features of XBoard.
+ * Brute force searches to 60 ply (1 ply = a move by one side).
+ * Hash tables for storing positions already visited in the search.
+ * Pondering. (Thinking on the opponent's time.)
+ * Recursive null move pruning.
+ * Quiescent capture search.
+ * Adjustable hash table size.
+ * Adjustable search and evaluation parameters.
