To Robert Sclim:

Your opponent is out of time. You have a theoretical opportunity of mating
him if one of the following is true:

1) You have a pawn, a Rook or a Queen
2) You have two of the following {Bishop, Knight} (BB, BK or KK) , except
   when BB are the same color.
3) You have a Bishop and the opponent has one of the following:
   {Bishop with different color, Knight, pawn}
4) You have a Knight and the opponent has one of the following:
   {Bishop, Knight, Rook, pawn}

That's not so much, now is it? This covers everything. Give me an example
if it does not.
