a [[Chess Engine Communication Protocol]] compatible [[Open Source Engines|open source chess program]] under the [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology#License|MIT License]] by [[Adrien Regimbald|Adrien M. Regimbald]], written in [[C]] and last updated as version '''1.4.4''' in 2001. It is a good example of didactic programming, containing features similar to that of [[Gerbil]], coded in a way much more digestible for beginners. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dragon_Reborn Faile] is the name of a character from the popular [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wheel_of_Time Wheel of Time] series by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Jordan Robert Jordan].
