Is there any engine that measures skill level?

And no, I don't mean the gimmicky rubbish that Fritz dies with "betting" on the next game against the computer.

I mean that each move is compared to the engine's moves and the correspondence or lack of it gives you a skill ELO for the game, regardless of the result.

If Shredder or Fritz 8 have such a facility I haven't managed to find it.

I have heard of such an animal, but I don't know the name of it. I am told there is someone who does. I keep meaning to ask him. I'll try to find out and then post, if no one else does.

OK. That would be muich appreciated.

every chess player should have one in my opinion also, but I have to wonder how accurate they can be. I have a way of being able to figure out a close approximation, but it is more erroneous and takes a lot more work.
