Option Defence N
Lists tries that are refuted with N refutations.

Another very useful option is "PostKeyPlay". If you enter the post-key position and use "option PostKeyPlay" then Popeye will list all Black moves and White's replies. If there is no mate after a particular black move then "refutes" is displayed. Using this option you don't have to worry about how many refutations there are.

Thanks Dmitri and Geoff!! I'm trying to download the latest Popeye on my windowsXP computer. My computer can only handle the 32bit, but only 64 is available for download. Is there a comparable 32 available for download?

I was able to install 4.67 after I found the correct file. Still getting bugs in AnnanChess. i tested the following #1:
W:Ka8 Bb3
B:Ke4 Pe5e3

got the correct 1.Bd5# but it did not give 1.Bc2#
any idea what might be going on here?
