Please excuse me if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but I haven't found it.

Sometimes when I fail a problem it isn't clear what was wrong with my move.  An option to see the computer's refutation would be very helpful.  Of course this could be quite difficult to provide (an on-line engine would be needed); so short of this, a way to extract the FEN of the problem setting would allow me to put the problem into a chess engine (off-line, of course) and play out the position.

Just an idea!

Hi Chipschap,

One of the "premium" level features that will be released in the next couple of weeks is the providing of the starting position of each tactic in PGN format (it is PGN and not FEN in order to provide the opponents first move, the PGN has the FEN of the position before the opponents move).

Regards,
Richard.

That is excellent and you can certainly count on me to enroll as a premium member when it is available.
