ChessLin
Revision as of 11:00, 22 March 2021 by GerdIsenberg (talk | contribs)
ChessLin,
likely the smallest computer implementation of a none FIDE compliant chess variant by Baudsurfer/Red Sector Inc. aka Olivier Poudade, written in x86 Assembly as sizecoding exercise,
consisting of only 256 bytes [1].
Double pawn push and therefor en passant, promotions and castling are not implemented.
It plays like a fish as AI is reduced to a half-ply, it also has no endgame detection - and takes about a hundred seconds to play.
ChessLin also only works on Microsoft Windows XP SP3.
Like minimalist Edlin line editor, it focuses on a single console line to enter moves
[2].
