Just is case :
- does anyone know other applications that may use this kind of comment ? 
XG doesn't play hypergammon I think, but it would be annoying if there 
were someone using "hypergammon (3)", another one "hypergammon 3", etc...
- Lucas, could you send me some files created by your application ?
