You could try the latex output, works pretty well. With html output maybe you can edit the code and resize the diagrams (haven't tried it). > My chess engine is Deep Shredder 12, since > that's the strongest one that runs multithreaded directly under Linux. > > By profession I'm an Economist; at work I do a lot of scientific > programming, mostly in Fortran 95 and Python, for house-built analytical > software that runs multithreaded on a big AIX server.

But I recommend you try out the new Stockfish engine (http://www.mediafire.com/?ywtum2tmwi5). It is opensource and scales beautifully on multi-core machines (very strong also, possibly stronger than Schredder). I hope this helps, although it hasn't answered your question directly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
