- GNU Shogi is the japanese version of chess. You can find the
- rules of Shogi in "shogi.rules". This file and many other
- shogi related stuff can be obtained from the SHOGI-L listserver (see
- "listserv.ref"). If you would like to learn Shogi, you may
- play some games following the game notations of the text book files.
- You can find them in "../misc/*.book" and "../misc/shogi-l.games/*".
- Especially "game01" and "game25" in "../misc/shogi-l.games" may serve
- as introductiory games.
-
- GNU Shogi is based on GNU Chess 4.0, i.e. the first
- version of GNU Shogi has been obtained by "simply" modifying
- the chess-specific parts of GNU Chess 4.0.
-
- I would like to thank all people who have made the
- sources of GNU Chess 4.0 available.
