Amifish is a chess program made to play chess with the Amiga, exploiting the

power of one of the most powerful chess engines of the world: Stockfish,

developed by Tord Romstad, Marco Costalba, Joona Kiiski and Gary Linscott. A

chess engine is a console program who play chess, receiving strings as

commands and producing strings in output as result of computation. Stockfish

and much others engines are compatible with a standard named UCI (Universal

Chess Interface). A chess engine doesn't show graphic, nor play sound. Its

task is to compute moves. For the Amiga, some chess engine was ported, but

its use in a shell isn't so handy for all users, so this program has been

made.

This is a light program for amateurs, is made to have fun with chess, with

only the most common options implemented. In future releases, this program can

be improved with other functionalities, with expert options also.

To play against the computer, a chess engine is needed, to be downloaded from

another location.

Amifish is released as freeware.
