NAME
chess - the game of chess
SYNOPSIS
/usr/games/chess
DESCRIPTION
Chess is a computer program that plays class D chess. Moves may be given either in standard (descriptive) notation or in algebraic nota- tion. The symbol `+' is used to specify check; `o-o' and `o-o-o' specify castling. To play black, type `first'; to print the board, type an empty line. Each move is echoed in the appropriate notation followed by the program's reply.
FILES
/usr/games/lib/book opening `book'
DIAGNOSTICS
The most cryptic diagnostic is `eh?' which means that the input was syntactically incorrect.
WARNING
Over-use of this program will cause it to go away.
BUGS
Pawns may be promoted only to queens. CHESS(6)
