It is possible, and an earler version has actually been ported and posted
to comp.{binaries|sources}.atari.st; check nearby ftp sites for availability.

Compiling gnuchess should be fairly trivial otherwise, if you get the
GNU - C port for the ST; it includes an implementation of the curses
library.

Both should be available via anonyous ftp from atari.archive.umich.edu
[141.211.164.8], for example.

Hope this helps
