If you look at the >"tactical game" feature it is not far from what you're looking for : >when the player blunders, he gets a red warning, so we can call it a >"blunder finder".

You can have a look at Chess Tactics Server (http://chess.emrald.net) to see what I mean. >PS : When you say "simple mates are probably too easy for my coaching >purposes", I personaly think mate in 2/3 moves are perfect for coaching >with kids or even adults (if this is your intention).
