I am not sure if this is what you want. But based in your question, you want to use YaY and winboard only.
To do this, create a winboard shortcut with the following line in the target:
"c:\Program Files\WinBoard-4.2.7\winboard.exe" /ics /icshost 127.0.0.1 /icsport 6000
Or similar, depending in your particular configuration.
Then launch YaY as usual, and then double click in the new winboard shortcut and that will do. I do this all the time when I am testing scripts and I dont want to wast time launching YaY,winboard, and chessbase.
Cheers,
Using engines to cheat:
- It is not ethical,
- It is useless, nothing is gained (how can one be proud of a score earn with dishonesty?)
- You will be baned, sooner or later,
- It gives us (the true chess engine players) a bad reputation.
