2014-04-15	chess-ai.el: Oops, cl-delete-if only at runtime.	Mario Lang

2014-04-15	chess-ai.el: No need for cl-sort.	Mario Lang

2014-04-14	Build fruit and glaurung modules.	Mario Lang

2014-04-13	chess-ai.el: Require cl-lib at runtime for cl-sort.	Mario Lang

2014-04-10	chess-ai.el: Better top-level move ordering and quiescence pruning.	Mario Lang

2014-04-10	chess-ai.el: Rename functions and fix a subtle bug in quiescence search ↵	Mario Lang
	termination.
2014-04-10	chess-ai.el: Cleanup.	Mario Lang

2014-04-09	chess-ai.el: Quiescence search.	Mario Lang
	This change finally fixes the internal Emacs Lisp based AI enough to be an interesting opponent. Search is of course very slow, and rather shallow (2 plies + quiescence by default) but the AI can finally defend itself against simple attacks, and sees opportunities as expected.
2014-04-09	chess-legal-plies: If chess-ply-allow-interactive-query is nil, generate Q ↵	Mario Lang
	and N promotions.
2014-04-08	chess-ai.el: Ply ordering + a bit of progress reporting.	Mario Lang

2014-04-08	chess-ai.el: Simpler search function, progress reporter and bug fixed.	Mario Lang

2014-04-07	chess-search-position: Also consider opponent king moves when checking for ↵	Mario Lang
	check. With this the rule that there always needs to be one square between kings is honours in chess-legal-plies. Without this fix, a move next to the opponents king was considered legal.
2014-04-06	TODO items done since we switched to tabulated-list-mode.	Mario Lang

2014-04-04	Fix docstrings.	Mario Lang

2014-04-03	chess-ics.el: Pacify compiler.	Mario Lang

2014-04-03	chess-ics.el: use tabulated-list-mode.	Mario Lang
	This eliminates roughly 100 lines of boilerplate code.
2014-04-02	ICC seek removal was broken as well.	Mario Lang

2014-04-02	Try to improve the promotion situation on ICS by allowing chess-ply to query ↵	Mario Lang
	for the promotion piece.
2014-04-02	Fix ics seek ads removal.	Mario Lang

2014-04-02	Eliminate a few compiler warnings due to missing require or cl runtime use.	Mario Lang

2014-04-01	For some reason, chess-pos.el needs to be compiled first.	Mario Lang

2014-04-01	chess-rf-to-index: Fix assertion.	Mario Lang
	Should be and, not or. cl-check-type is more clear anyway.
2014-04-01	chess-clock-tick-tock: Fix an error on first call.	Mario Lang
	First time around, chess-clock-last-time is nil.
2014-03-31	chess-pos.el: Reorder some definitions to pacify compiler.	Mario Lang
	Also, actually disable assertions during compilation (as intended) which increases performance by roughly 30%.
2014-03-30	Refactor chess-plain-handler a bit.	Mario Lang

2014-03-30	Try to fix 045a93cb98dfd320e756ea9d9799ea92f0900bc6 a different way.	Mario Lang
	Restore the old behaviour (run game hooks before painting move), but move the post-move hook from chess-game-move to chess-display-move. This fixes the reentrancy bug while preserving error checks being done in the game hooks. Maybe rename post-move to post-display-move?
2014-03-30	Fix a rather serious bug in chess-pos-move:	Mario Lang
	We were checking for king or rook moves to remove our castling flags if necessary, but we did not remove the opponents castling flags if we took one of their rooks. This led to rather invalid positions. You could castle with your king and the opponents piece.
2014-03-30	Try to fix a reentrancy bug in chess-display-move.	Mario Lang
	The problem occurs with engine modules which reply to move events with move events directly, i.e. cvhess-ai and chess-uci when replying with a book move. Since chess-display-move first performs chess-game-move followed by chess-display-paint-move, we end up with the plies getting painted in reverse. This is visible when pieces are taken. If we paint the move first and then emit the move event on the game, the problem goes away.
2014-03-30	UCI engines crash on FENs with missing trailing spaces.	Mario Lang

2014-03-30	chess-plain-piece-chars: Include a suggestion for unicode figures.	Mario Lang

2014-03-30	chess-plain-piece-chars: Provide some useful default settings via custom :type.	Mario Lang

2014-03-30	Provide unicode box drawing characters as a possible choice for ↵	Mario Lang
	chess-plain-border-chars via custom :type.
2014-03-29	chess-uci.el: Use the post-move event to work around a display bug when the ↵	Mario Lang
	handler directly replies with a move because it was found in the book.
2014-03-29	Decompress a polyglot book file if it was compressed.	Mario Lang

2014-03-28	Pacify byte compiler.	Mario Lang

2014-03-28	Make the strength of book replies configurable.	Mario Lang

2014-03-28	Simplify the search in chess-polyglot.el.	Mario Lang

2014-03-28	Fixes to polyglot code.	Mario Lang

2014-03-26	chess-uci: Choose a (random) move from the book.	Mario Lang

2014-03-26	More docstring fixes.	Mario Lang

2014-03-26	An asterisk no longer signifies a user option.	Mario Lang

2014-03-26	Document and refactor chess-polyglot.el.	Mario Lang

2014-03-25	Optionally allow UCI engines to query a book provided by polyglot.	Mario Lang

2014-03-25	Low level polyglot binary opening book support.	Mario Lang

2014-03-24	chess-pgn-insert-and-show-position	Mario Lang

2014-03-24	Docstrings.	Mario Lang

2014-03-24	Rename chess-engine-sentinal to chess-engine-sentinel and simplify a bit.	Mario Lang

2014-03-24	Update phalanx URL.	Mario Lang

2014-03-24	Parse UCI long algebraic moves correctly.	Mario Lang

2014-03-24	chess-pos-can-castle: Avoid error if there is no king on the board.	Mario Lang
