---------------------update july 1994 stello v1.1-----------------------
By popular demand (my own 8-) i have put the dialogs in windows. This
means, that the program dosent hog the computer when showing dialogs.
A side effect is that under normal tos it almost feels like
multitasking, as the computer continues thinking while you are using
the dialogs. You can now have 3D activator and indicator buttons
under normal tos, 3D checkboxes and niceline menus.
-----------Update: Match against Thor v 3.36. (july 1994)---------------
The last match was against thor v 3.33, and in the meantime the
authors behind Thor have improved the program. As far as i can see it
searches somewhat faster, and it dosen't anymore occasionally make a
bad move. Furthermore the endgameroutine is 2-3 times faster. I made
the same match with the same 10 different openings. The new result
was.

As we can see, the outcome in points is almost identical to the last
testmatch. Stello wins 14-6. If we analyse the games in more detail
we can see that it now is a much closer match. The disc differential
now is 8 discs, where it in the last match was 17 discs. We can see
that Thor really has improved. Maybe i should start implementing some
of those new ideas that i have been thinking about.
