Or are you working on a retrograde : analysis program? That would be neat too! I want to make a program like ChessBase and ChessAssistant. I've only seen the free demo version of ChessAssistant, and that is what I'm modeling after. So far, I got the pieces to move legally and the move list to be stored. I finishing up storing the variant moves. My next step is file IO. If there is a database of games, I'd like to find out where it is. It would save me a lot of time making up data. Also, I may consider somehow attaching gnuchess to it so it could suggest moves as you're entering your games.
