    Wonderful program!
    But did you notice that it consumes a lot of CPU time when being idle on the main screen? For example:
    - start LucasChess
    - select Training/Your daily test
    - do the test
    - return to main screen
    - then CPU: 25% - while doing next to nothing

    At the External Engine Edition - Command Mode (file name plus arguments) you are not supposed to check if the executable is the UCI standard compatible. The Putty PLINK.EXE is not chess engine at all.
