Chess is a electronic chessboard for the Psion series 3 / Pocket Book. It lets |
| 4 |
|
|
two people play each other (but not the against the palmtop). It may work on |
| 5 |
|
|
newer Psions too - the source is included and may require re-translating. |

Usage |

|
|
|
| 11 |
|
|
Copy 'Chess.opa' into your 'APP' directory and install it. 'Chess.opl' and |
| 12 |
|
|
'Chesspic.opl' are the source, and are not required to use Chess. |
| 13 |
|
|
|
| 14 |
|
|
Then run Chess to get to the main screen. You will be prompted for player |
| 15 |
|
|
names. Use the arrow keys and Enter to move pieces. You can abort a move by |
| 16 |
|
|
pressing Esc. Press M to see all the possible moves. |
| 17 |
|
|
|
| 18 |
|
|
Only legal moves are allowed, with a few exceptions: |
| 19 |
|
|
- 'en-passant' is not supported |
| 20 |
|
|
- you can castle through or out of check |
| 21 |
|
|
|
| 22 |
|
|
The program will detect check, and show a brief message in the corner. |
| 23 |
|
|
Checkmate is not detected, but if no moves are possible then it must be |
| 24 |
|
|
checkmate. |
| 25 |
|
|
|
| 26 |
|
|
Use < and > to rotate the board. Press Help for brief instructions, and Menu |
| 27 |
