-Knights - A chess interface (GUI) for the Trinity Desktop Environment
-
-
-
-Knights is a graphical chess interface designed to work with TDE.
-It's designed to be both friendly to new chess players and
-functional for Grand Masters. Knights is called a chess "interface"
-because it does not come with it's own computer players. There are
-several computer players ( Chess Engines ) already. Unfortunatly, most
-chess engines do not include fully featured GUIs. Instead, they rely on
-other programs ( like Knights ) to fill the gap.
-
-
-- What Chess Engines can work with Knights?
-
-Knights should support any engine which uses the XBoard protocol
-developed by Tim Mann. Knights will also offer it's own protocol for
-future use. To date, the following chess engines have been confirmed
-to work with. If you know of another, please let we know so we can
-update this list.
