Hi Stan!

Many thanks for your reply. I am writing for now only little programs, but no to
chess.. My idea is of course, to work in a future in a strong chess program, and
in a spanish draughts program (these are my two future projects) but still i
need to learn a lot.

I saw the Source Code of your program in Pascal 7.0, and i think is really fine.
It help to clear my ideas to how begin to write a chess program in Pascal
Language.

 I understand somethings, but still i need to learn a lot of things to
understand it completely.

Anyway, Thank you very much Stan, for give the source code of your program to
all the people that want to learn how to program. Indeed it is a great help.

Greetings!

Tanya Deborah.
