Package: polyglot (1.4.36b-2)

chess engine protocol adaptor, connects UCI engines to xboard

Common chess frontends have a winboard/xboard input interface, modern chess engines speak the UCI "universal chess interface" protocol. This protocol adaptor makes it possible to use standard chess frontends, like xboard or scid with UCI speaking engines and play chess against them.
