Not that many features at moment, we are mainly trying to adjust to an updated version of gtk, (gtk is the interface builder used in gnubg) and to catch up with old bugs. SSE is a cpu feature. It is present in intel cpus from pentium III and later and in newer amd cpus as well. Using this feature allows gnubg to play 20-30% faster. Using the sse build should be a safe bet as the code should check your cpu at runtime. Caused some problems in the past though. The Command Line Interface is text based interface to the gnubg playing engine. I, for example use it to import, analyse and display the statistics afterwards of matches I play on the internet. This way I don't have to do the same thing in the graphical interface over and over again. Any feature available in the cli can be accessed in the gui command panel. > > 3.

I don't understand which feature you are talking about.
