* personal use includes any use you make of the program yourself, either by *
* playing games with it yourself, or allowing others to play it on your *

* identified as "Crafty" to anyone playing it (on a chess server as one *
* example). Personal use does not allow anyone to enter this into a chess *
* tournament where other program authors are invited to participate. IE you *
* can do your own local tournament, with Crafty + other programs, since this *
* is for your personal enjoyment. But you may not enter Crafty into an *
* event where it will be in competition with other programs/programmers *
* without permission as stated previously. *
* *
* Crafty is the "son" (direct descendent) of Cray Blitz. it is designed *
* totally around the bit-board data structure for reasons of speed of ex- *
* ecution, ease of adding new knowledge, and a *significantly* cleaner *
* overall design. it is written totally in ANSI C with some few UNIX system *
* calls required for I/O, etc. *
