Hi Chuck,

My Zillions-of-Games implementation of chu shogi is now available for download
from the Zillions pages (I'll probably get around to putting it on my page as
well at some stage). You can find it at:

http://www.zillions-of-games.com/chushogi.html

This version is the chu playing program.

I also have the mating problem version that I mentioned in earlier posts. Being
a rather specialist application, this is not available through Zillions
Development. But I'd be happy to e-mail it to anyone who is interested (it's
about 60k).

Regards,

Steve Evans
