That sounds good. If you get something that works well in ChessDB, I 
will of course add it to the distribution if you wish.



I've a couple of chess programs on Pocket PC and the pieces in Pocket 
Grandmaster are much better than any of the others. I know they have 
permission to use the pieces from somewhere else, but I get the feeling 
that was for no cost. It might be worth investigating similar 
possibilities.
