InBetween,
a Windows command line utility written by Odd Gunnar Malin that can be used to translate or modify text commands between client and server, for instance between a chess GUI (client) and CECP or UCI compliant chess engine (server) to fix communication incompatibilities or glitches in protocol implementations. Further, to track down possible incompatibilities, or for debug purpose ¹, InBetween allows logging of all the communication between GUI and engine (client, server or both), either as output to the console or optionally written into a log file. Along with PuTTY, InBetween may be used for fusing a Windows GUI, such as ChessBase to a chess engine on a Linux server via a Secure Shell ².
