## Summary:

  Welcome to Emacs Chess, a chess playing module for GNU Emacs.

  chess.el is an Emacs Lisp library and several clients on top of the
  underlying library functionality for performing various activities
  related to the game of chess.

  Type `M-x chess', and play chess against one of the default engine modules.

  Type `C-u M-x chess' to select a specific engine.
  You can play against various external chess computer programs, like
  crafty, fruit, glaurung, gnuchess, phalanx, sjeng and stockfish.
  There is also an Emacs based chess computer module (ai) which does not
  require any external programs.  However, the internal AI is not very strong.

## Recent NEWS:

This is the NEWS file for Emacs Chess, a chess client and analysis library
written in Emacs Lisp.


* Release 2.0.4:

This is yet another bugfix release, no new features.

** Fix a bug in PGN annotation parsing.

** Fix missing dependencies in the ECO module.

** Make the third argument of `chess-display-draw-square' optional, as expected
   by the rest of the code.

** Fix a bug where PGN mode could not load the `chess-file' module.


* Release 2.0.3:

This is a bugfix release which fixes a recursive dependency between
`chess-display' and `chess-pgn' which was accidentally missed in 2.0.2.

Also included is further proof-reading of the Info manual.


* Release 2.0.2:

** Major updates to the Info manual.

** Algebraic move input:

*** It is now possible to enter moves in numeric notation by
    customizing `chess-input-notation-type'.

*** Backspace (DEL) on terminals now deletes input as expected.

*** If `chess-display-highlight-legal' is non-nil, target squares of
    posssible moves are highlighted while you type.

** The board and modeline is now correctly updated when making a move against
   the internal engine (AI).

** An error when editing positions with the `chess-plain' display has been 
fixed.

** Legal move target highlights are now properly removed again once a move
   has been selected, or the selected piece has been deselected.

*** As a consequence of this fix, `chess-display-highlight-legal' is now
    on by default.

** `chess-ply-to-algebraic' can now generate figurine algebraic and
   numeric notation.

** `chess-algebraic-to-ply' can now handle figurine algebraic notation.

** Several compiler warnings have been fixed.
   
** The `chess-autosave' module is disabled by default for now.

** The incomplete and unused constant `chess-piece-name-table' has been removed.


* Release 2.0.1:

** chess-polyglot now works on 32-bit platforms.

** Redo `chess-algebraic-regexp' with `rx' to improve readability.

** Fix "invalid function" error in `chess-search-position'.
   This was introduced by the recent conversion
   of `chess--add-candidates' from a defsubst to a defmacro.


* Release 2.0.0:

Began keeping this file.  See doc/chess.info for information about Emacs
