Author Note

This new version does not contain any new strength improvement so if you are only interested in strength keep the old 1.2 version and don't upgrade. Version 1.3 is about one new feature only, a tool for aspirant (and maybe even for experienced chess programmers) to improve their testing methods. It's a collection of old DOS analysis tools I ported to Windows and gathered them into 1 function called Analyze PGN.

What's the tool about?

Analyze PGN is a tool to extract valuable information from a PGN engine-engine (or auto232) output file provided the PGN output is created by ChessBase or Arena. For optimal performance of this tool make sure that the PGN file contains scores and depths. Let's have a look at the analysis results.
