I will modify the Chess Engine List as you suggest. I hope to make the changes tomorrow.

Question: Do Ippolit and Igorrit belong on my 'Dead Engine List'? (If no further work will be done to those codebases, then they meet my definition as 'dead'.)

Thank you for the information!

Thought it was pretty well known that Ippolit turned into Iggorit -> Robbolito -> Ivanhoe. I guess there can still be some confusion.

I thought so too, but after reading some recent comments on talkchess, that proved otherwise. Also, http://computer-chess.org/doku.php?id=computer_chess ...

I think Chistophe's real reason for abandoning Android is that it's easy to decompile Android programs back into Java source code

For the GUI, perhaps it would be easy. But the engine would be compiled as a native ...

The answer for both question is that I do not know.

I recall I used some small program for my custom TSCP compiles, but I don't remember what since it was several years ago.

One of these maybe?

Not the greatest paper in the world (and likely not freely available), but it does couch the issues somewhat well, and mentions Rybka, Strelka and Fruit. For Rybka/Fruit the comment is: The decompiling efforts are, as of the time of writing, substantially ...

I can highly recommend MinGW , which ports the GCC compiler and some other tools to Windows. The only real limitation is that you won't be able to make 64-bit compiles, although somebody mentioned in my Stockfish GTB thread that there is a 64-bit version. I don't know if it works though. :P

Thank you very much for this. Had been looking for a portable 64bit C/C++ environment for a long while. Is this project still active?

I'm glad you like it. I believe that this is the best gcc-based package out there that runs on Windows and ...

That's why I'm stuck with making 32-bit executables, there is no 64-bit MinGW that I know of.
