New in MacChess 3.0.e Rotterdam 10/12/97
====== NEW FEATURES ======
1. Now works with ExaChess to play against other Macintosh chess programs.
(The "e" in 3.0.e" is for ExaChess)
====== FIXED PROBLEMS ======
1. The "American" piece set icons have been improved.
(the gems in the bands of the Queen, King and Bishop are now hollow.)
====== EXACHESS FEATURE ======
ExaChess lets you play MacChess against other ExaChess compatible
Macintosh chess programs automatically. Currently available opponents are:
Crafty, GNUChess and ZZZZZZ. You need to obtain ExaChess or ExaChess Lite
to do this. The instructions are in the ExaChess manual.
To download ExaChess Lite (which includes ZZZZZZ), access:
