Re: [Bug-gnubg] GNU Backgammon Tutorial

[Joseph Heled]

Funny that this comes up. I would not use any "reduced" setting at all.
In fact I put reduced code under an ifdef which make it possible to comment it 
out, since I am working on adding the prune nets to GNUbg. They are generic 
(i.e. work for any ply), and give better results than any reduced setting).

More later, since I am student now, and this will take a little to get right.
