I want to know if the following move is valid (I think is called
an-passan (?)) That is, you move your pawn from its initial position
(*2 for the whites or *7 for the blacks) two places forward and
get the pawn of your opponent that is resting in the same row that
your pawn ends but one column to the left or right. So, you don't
get it by moving diagonaly, but for a pawn's 1st move that's allowed.

Please let me know if this move is valid or not.
