DESCRIPTION
GNU Chess is a well known chess program written in C and designed
to be portable. Depending on the hardware it can get very strong.
(About 2200-2300 ELO on a DEC Alpha, about 1800 on an Amiga 1200)
There are different versions available:
- A simple ASCII version, printing the complete chessboard
with ASCII characters after each move.
- A Curses version, similar to the ASCII version, but with the
ability to move the cursor.
- An AmyBoard client; AmyBoard is a frontend, which allows you
to play with the mouse on a beautiful chessboard.
Some tools for analyzing a chess game and postsript output are
included.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
AmigaOS version 2.0 or later
Installer (available on Aminet, util/misc)
