Most information is from around May > 1995, so it may well be obsolete by now. Don't forget my Shocky. It's a freeware shogi program with english text-based user interface. Shocky runs under MS-DOS, but can also be executed in DOS-window under Windows95. The current version of Shocky plays pretty well (beats most of the other freeware shogi programs) and a much stronger version should be available in couple of months. You can freely download Shocky 1.82 from my web page: http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/~pmturune/Shocky_e.html Pauli Misikangas Pauli.Misikangas cs Helsinki FI
