CHESS.DOC
INTRODUCTION
============
Now you can play chess with OLGA !
Chess pieces are automatically assembled, time taken to make moves is
monitored, you can have as many games on the go as you wish - even with
the same player, displays a digitised picture of you and your opponent,
accepts only valid moves and can be executed from OLGA CONTROL Centre for
use with BBS's or from the DOS prompt for 'side-by-side' play.
Recently added is the Replay option.
You can press R in the middle of a game and see how you got
in to such a mess.
or
You can type REPLAY by itself in the DOS prompt to view all
games.
It's dead easy to use so the notes are brief.
To pick up a piece use the space bar. Then move the piece with the cursor
keys. Then put the piece down with the space bar again. Easy. You may
enter directly the grid references instead. E.g. A2 - A4.
To castle move the king two spaces.
To resign press escape and 'R'.
To cancel press escape twice.
