How do I setup Crafty, Fritz etc to run on FICS, ICC, USCL etc?How about YahooChess?

Setting up Winboard engines to run in Internet Chess Servers like Freechess.org formerly known as FICS or Free Internet Chess server, or Internet Chess Club ICC is possible with the use of zippy that comes with the Winboard package. Another possible and perhaps easier way is to use the new Arena , that comes with ICS support. However it is not possible to set up Winboard Chess engines to run in YahooChess servers using normal Winboard compatible interfaces.

This is because YahooChess is based on a java applet, and zippy does not work in that. In fact,this holds for most Chess servers besides FICS/ICC/Chessnet and perhaps USCL which share similar code. There is however a project known as YICS that makes it possible to 'possible to use ICS-compatible interfaces (such as xboard, WinBoard, eboard, and Thief) on Yahoo!

Chess.' . This opens the possibility of using engines that use these interfaces. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
