Hello Dann,
First, a big thank for you and Colin Frayn for your release.
I have a question.
The release Beowulf 3.2 date of the 11.02.2004 has 270336 bytes.
The last release Beowulf 3.2b5 has 1'241'088 bytes.
Can you give me why there is a great size for the last release.
Thanks for your answear
Best wishes
Claude

It's a beta release, but should be interesting.
I don't know why. Change to newer compiler, I think. Just a guess though.

Do you mean the extra size is only due to the symbols beeing included?
Or is there some debug code as well?
Fabien.

Does this version need a personality file? Or are all the evaluation weight values built in?

In every version the values are built in. But you can change them with a personality file.
The default values should be good values.

Sorry, but i don't understand. :-(

In a previous post you said "For every evaluation weight (117 different terms), a computer decided what it;s value should be, not a human."
Wouldn't a default.per file overwrite the computer generated values?

Yes. If you do not use a default.per file, then all the values are those generated by the computer. You can change any or all of the values with your own default.per file.

Thanks, i understand now. Is there any way to know the computer generated values, such as a command to save a .per file with these values?
Regards
Dave

Explanation:
"use_delta" is the readable name of the feature
person_use_delta is the enum that defines the feature
{0, 0, 1} is {default, minimum allowed, maximum allowed}
&person.use_delta is the address of the default value (used in the calibration command)
