Chess engine: ShashChess 12 (for Windows and Linux)

ShashChess - UCI chess engine.
Rating JCER=3212

ShahChess derived from Stockfish family chess engines. 

It's a pleasure to annonce the new ShashChess 12 release with a lot of novelties:
-completely revised Shashin theory so that we reached a main goal of our development:
the best tactical solver (better than Houdini tactical) without loosing in strength compared to Stockfish: no other button needed!
Our tests results will follow.
In particular, many thanks to JHellis and its latest Crystal derivative.
No more contempt: it's integrated in Shashin theory and we have no rollcoaster effect: the score is truly aligned with the gui
We demonstrated the effectiveness of Shashin theory at no fast time controls and there is yet a very large margin of improvement:
a lot of discarded Stockfish community patches (thanks clearly for their immense work)can be well integrated thanks to Shashin theory,
improving game play and/or hard positions management.
-new Self Q-learning, a learning variant optimized for self play
-improved LiveBook management
-latest Stockfish patch
