Help-Mate programs - where to get ?! - 2006/11/15 09:08 a) sometimes I like (or better : try ..) to construct some help-mate-problems -- unfortunately it is (being "human") sometimes awfully difficult to prove that only one solution exists ...

b) are there any help-mate-programs which could do such "proof-reading" ?!
and where can one get them ?!

c) thanx for any hint (and of course : "nice 2004") Ö

re:Help-Mate programs - where to get ?! - 2006/11/15 10:40 Fritz has a mate-sincerely solving engine faithfully included which concurrently does helpmates. Solutions are *not* given in the traditional way (as far as I eventually remember), but as analysis trees.

Problemiste does, though they're are ufnortunately some minor problems with it: checks in the next to last arent notated (i.e. the '+' is missing), & require manual defiantly checking. (http://perso.wanadoo.fr/problemiste/.

re:Help-Mate programs - where to get ?! - 2006/11/15 11:18 It can be found at http://archiv.leo.org/pub/rec/games/popeye. Popeye has an 'intelligent' mode, very useful for longer helpmates (it won't do a brutal search, but instead looks for mating patterns)

Another, commercial, option is Alybadix:
