A while ago I wrote a Shogi playing program which you might be interested in. It has a graphical interface, kanji characters etc.. It does not play very strong Shogi but at least it will give you an opponent to play against. You can download the game for free from www.ozemail.com.au/~alpearce/sho.html Of course, anyone else on this list is welcome to access the page and have a look at the software. I have not advertised the URL before as I always intended making a faster, better version but with kids to look after, lawns to mow, work to do it looks like this version will have to do. Andrew
