Subject: Chess Programming Terms

 Hello all, i am new to chess programming and i am reading old posts because
probably most of my questions are already covered there. My problem is that
there is a lot of chess terms, and i am always asking myself "what is nullmove?"
or "what is fail low?" or "R=3?" so i wonder if there is a appendix about chess
terms or some glossary i can read. Is there a link or something (maybe a single
page) or perhaps some of you could write a list with a short description and
post it here. (i am not asking for explanation of algorytms on it, just "minor"
terms like: R, prunning, fail-low.. etc.)

 Thanks in advance!
