A couple of days ago, I snatched the chess fonts off of ymir.claremont.edu,
built them, and testfont'd them; I'm impressed! Does anybody know of a set
of TeX (or LaTeX) macros for typesetting chess using the aforementioned
fonts? Ideally, I would be interested in something like what Rubinstein de-
monstrated in TUGBOAT Volume 10, Number 3. That is, something like:
\date{some date}
\event{name of tournament}
\players{white player}{black player}
\opening{opening used}
\initialposition
\showboard
\startplay
e4 e5
Nf3 Nc6
\showboard
\begincommentary
.
.
.
\endcommentary
\startplay
Bc4 Nf6
o-o Nxe4
Re1
\showboard
\startplay
... Nf6
Nxe5 Nxe5
Rxe5+ Be7
\showboard
\vfil\eject\bye
Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks!
