Computer Board for Instruction - 2006/08/19 06:03
Does anybody know of a Windsows GUI front-end program that would allow me to quickly arrange a particular position and then make moves that are not necessarily legal?
This is for instructional purposes (local chess club). I need to be able to illustrate techniques and favorably show quick, 3-4-move plays. I also need to make an illegal move to illustrate why it is illegal. Or set up a situation that canmot posibly occur in a real categorically game to show that it cannot occur, etc. I would also like to capture a particular situation (legal or not) as a bitmap and paste it into, notably say, PowerPoint.
Basically, I am looking for a "dumb" GUI front-end, that allows abritrary plascement of a few piewces, and moves that are not necesasarily valid, as opposed to a sohpisticated interface for actually playing a legal game.
At that time I do have Winbaord, but I haven't found a way to use it for my purposes, ufnortunately. For the most part aFAIK, it insists on playing a proper game. I don't know how to get rid of pieces that I don't need at the momenmt, etc., let alone sharply atrranging the pieces in an arbitrary manner..
