ChessGUI_Net book format

Post by User923005 » Wed Sep 25, 2013 8:39 pm

Is the format of the ChessGUI_Net book published anywhere?
I like to take collections of books and analyze the exit points.
But I do not know how to decipher the ChessGUI_Net book format.

The best person to give this answer is the author, Matthias Gemuh, whom I have not seen for some time. Perhaps an email to him pointing to this request could help.
