Iļæ½m also interested in this kind of program. My idea is to use >it on my HP 200LX Palmtop. That was an old post, but since my reply most likely is long gone, here goes again. There are two ftp sites you can check out, ftp.pitt.edu/group/student-activities/chess and chess.onenet.net They have programs that run on XT class machines. Here's a short list of what you should look for: NCHESS38 Necromancer 3.8 EDCV230 EdChess 2.30 NOW NOW Chess (stronger than both above) MyChess David Kittinger's program Psion There is one that goes by different names of the ZIP file, such as CHESS.ZIP, CHESSS.ZIP, etc., but these .ZIPs are about 4-5k and unzip to about a 10k program. I would stay away from this one, it is rather user-UNfriendly, and when it exits it doesn't restore your display to 80 columns, rather it leaves it in 40, which forces you to reboot. Hope this helps.
