Good graphics, friendly chess for PC? by
Jane Galt[_2_]
I'm not an advanced player. I used to like Chessmaster for the graphics and a
friendly game, but it never worked well and crashed a lot. Now I understand
it's gone.

Smullyan Problem in Sherlock Holmes book by
Christopher Heckman
I was re-reading Raymond Smullyan's _The Chess Mysteries of Sherlock
Holmes_, and I came to the section "Some Chilling Reminiscences",
specifically the second problem. The board is given as:
8/p1p1p1p1/p1kP2p1/8/P1N3N1/1P1bP1PP/1Q1Pq2P/r3n2B
(in FEN notation), with the condition that Black is to mate on the

Chess engine design resources by
Thinus Barnard
A chess engine can in many cases be broken up into the following areas:
The chess game rules:
- Board representation (a confusing term for me, I prefer game state)
- Interface
- Move generation (heavily influenced by how the board is represented)
The engine:
- Position Evaluation
- Search

Searching and/or parsing PGN libraries by
Barry Gold
It's easy to find libraries with thousands of games. But sifting
through those games to find games with a specific feature... that's hard.
I'd like to avoid re-inventing the wheel, so... is there a program out
there that will search game libraries (in PGN of course) for a given
combination of moves? Example: poisoned pawn accepted and PxQ.
Failing that, is there a standalone parser that I...

Some of the players were historical. For example Bobby Fischer had a
high correlation with the computer picked moves. This was, of course,
because Bobby Fischer was a strong player. Computers did not exist
back when he was playing.
