Is there an XBoard for the Amiga? What is AmyBoard?

0

AmyBoard is a port of XBoard to the Amiga, by Jochen Wiedmann. The distribution includes a port of GNU Chess. AmyBoard is free software. The current version of AmyBoard is 330.5 (based on XBoard 3.3.0). No one is currently maintaining it. System requirements: • An Amiga (obviously :-), running OS 2.04 or later, 2Mb RAM or more. • MUI 2.0 or later. • Workbench or another screen with no less than 640×400 pixels (adjustable with the MUI-Prefs); this restriction is just because we don’t have bitmaps with less than 40×40 pixels per square. If someone contributes bitmaps with 20×20 or 20×25, they will work with any Hires mode. If you would like to use an ICS, you need an Internet connection via either • a telnet-like program, or • a terminal program reading from stdin and writing to stdout. AmyBoard is available in the Internet Chess Library (topic [A.3]).
