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.
