{\Large Requirements}\\[5mm]
{\bf CHESS.STY 1.2} by Piet Tutelaers\\
with PK-Fonts and font metric files: CHESSF10, CHESS10, CHESS20,
CHESS30 (CHESS15 for typesetting postcard)\par
{\bf BABEL-PACKAGE} by Johannes Braams for language support\par
{\bf A4WIDE.STY} by Jean-Fran\c{c}ois Lamy for large pages\par
Notice : You can only use this style with \LaTeX .\\
The name BdFCHESS.STY is a rememberance on the old name of the
german chess correspondence federation which was renamed from {\bf
B}und {\bf d}eutscher {\bf F}ernschachfreunde to Deutscher
Fernschachbund.\\[5mm]
{\Large Additions to CHESS.STY which are not only usefull for

\end{tabular}}\par\vskip 5mm
For typesetting the postcard I use four macros to save and restore
chess positions\\
\centerline{\bf \bs savegameone \bs restoregameone \bs savegametwo
\bs restoregametwo .}
You may use them to save a game, play a variation and restore the
previous positions.\par
I have added a font named chess10f. It is the same font as
chessf10 for tournament style, but the knight {\fig N} looks to
the right side instead {\Fig N} of left side.\\
It is the recommondation of FIDE \footnote{Schubart, N”ttger,
Turnierleiterhandbuch des Deutschen Schachbundes, Walter de
Gruyter Verlag, Berlin 1987} that on chessboards the knight looks
like {\Fig N} and in the figurine Notation like {\fig N}. The
elegant way to change the font is to write in the front of your
document \verb+\font\Fig=chess10f+. The awful way is to rename
chess10f.pk to chessf10.pk. But please restore the old state to
avoid confusion, if you give the packages to other people.

Explanations :
\begin{description}
\item[\bs sender\{...\}] It is an empty definition. You can fill
in your own address in a way, which corresponds your taste.
\item[\bs receiver\{...\}] It is an empty definition. You can fill
in the receiving address in a way, which corresponds your taste.
\item[\bs cardmessage\{...\}] It is an empty definition. You can
fill in your messages. \\
See page \pageref{layout} for the layout of postcard.
\item[Environment gameone and gametwo] In a normal postal chess
match each participant plays two games, one game as white player
and one game as black player. Therefore this style manages two
games, but you are also able to play one game. The initalisation
starts with \verb+\newgame \savegameone \savegametwo+ which starts
a new game and stores it. If you play only one game, the postcard
show us this game and a new board.\\
If you start a new game with \verb+\begin{gameone}+ the following
actions happens \verb+\newgame+ \verb+\finishgameonefalse+ and the
tabularheader is typesetted. If you want to continue a running
game, you can use the position-environment as described in
CHESS.STY. In addition you must set the considertimes by
\verb+\global\considersumwhite=xxx+ \verb+\global+
\verb+\considersumblack=xxx+. Then you can use the macros
\verb+\postmove \postply+ as de\-scriped below. With
\verb+\end{gameone}+ all positions are stored with
\verb+\savegameone+ and the dates and last move are stored in
boxes, see page \pageref{layout}. This style assumes that the
last half move is your move ! If you want to set for example good
moves to be played latter, which should not appears on the
postcard, you must set them outside the environment gameone.
\item[\bs postmove] For typesetting moves you can call \bs postmove
with 6 arguments\\
1. arrivaldate of move player white in the notation day.month.year
(dd.mm.yyyy)\\
2. considertime of player white\\
3. move of player white in the notation [a-h][1-8][a-h]
[1-8]\{\{$Q\mid R\mid B\mid N$\}comment\}.\\
Description see documentation of CHESS.STY\\
4. move of player black in the notation [a-h][1-8][a-h]
[1-8]\{\{$Q\mid R\mid B\mid N$\}comment\}\\
5. arrivaldate of move player black\\
6. considertime player black\\
The expansion of this macro gives one tabularline : see example
page \pageref{exone}\\
\TeX\ calculates the leavingdate by the macro
\verb+\departure#1.#2.#3 #4+ (dd.mm.yyyy condidertime) and the
sums of considertimes in fields $\sum$.
\item[\bs postply] For typesetting halfmoves you can call \bs
postply with 3 arguments\\
1. arrivaldate in the notation day.month.year (dd.mm.yyyy)\\
2. considertime \\
3. halfmove in the notation [a-h][1-8][a-h][1-8]\{\{$Q\mid R\mid
B\mid N$\}comment\}
\item[{\bs postcard[f](dim,dim)}] This is the macro for
typesetting the postcardside with moves and dates. I have added
tree parameters. Optional [f] which creates a frame around the
card. And two dimension parameters for positioning the card,
first for a horizontal offset, second for vertical offset. Both
can be postiv and negativ. But of course you can also use the
options of your printerdriver for positioning the postcard. So
good luck to find the best way for your printer.
\item[{\bs postcardaddress[tf](dim,dim)}] Macro for typesetting the
front of the postcard. Options see \verb+\postcard[..](..,..)+.
The optional parameter [t] divide the postcard with a vertical
line and typeset the word postcard.

Explanations :
\begin{description}
\item[\bs postcardlanguage\{....\} ] These macros offers the
possibility to typeset the postcard in an other language.
There are still definitions for english, german and french, but
you can add your language to BdFCHESS.STY. In the example above
the notation-language is english (defined by the BABEL-System and
CHESS.STY) and the postcard-language is german.
\item[Analysis and Comments] You can add comments and switch with
$\mid$ in the analysismode as descriped in CHESS.STY.
\item[\bs holidaywhite num, \bs holidayblack num] These macros
correct the considertime, if you have taken holidays between
arrival and leaving of a move.
\item[\bs ifmoveone, \bs ifmovetwo] If you want to offer an
suggestionmove to your chessfriend these macros may be usefull for
you. It uses the analysis mode of CHESS.STY, so you must set the
command inside the switch $\mid$...$\mid$. The four arguments are
- movecount halfmove movecount halfmove - , because
the macro only sort the arguments in the correct fields, you must
set the moves completly. For example : $\mid$Nf3-e5, Ke8*f8,
Qd1-d8+,Bc1-g5$\mid$ \\
Result : |Nf3-e5, Ke8*f8, Qd1-d8+, Bc1-g5|\\
And don't forget the space between last argument and $\mid$.\\
If you call \bs ifmoveone twice, two suggestionmoves appears on
the postcard. If you call it for a third time, there is not enough
room and the result collide with the dates, so you have to design
a new \bs moveonebox, refer to chapter: if all else fails.
\end{description}
Remainding commands :
\postcardlanguage{english}
\begin{description}
\item[\bs acceptmoveone, \bs acceptmovetwo] This commands are
working as \bs ifmoveone. They typesets the move before the actual
move. So if you accept a suggestionmove you can repeat it at the
postcard.
\item[\bs finishgameone, \bs finishgametwo] You have to call these
macros, if you finished a game, so that the moves and dates of
this game don't appear on the postcard.
\item[\bs tabularheader] If the tabular continued on a new page,
you can call \bs tabularheader.\\ Result :\\[3mm]
\tabularheader
\item[\bs storeboard\{filename\}] This macro stores the momentary
positions of all pieces in a ASCII-File. It saves it as \bs
begin\{position\} \bs White(....) \bs Black(...) \bs global \bs
movecount=num \bs global \bs Whitetrue or \bs Whitefalse \bs
end\{position\}. But be careful, this macro has two disadvantages.
With BdFCHESS it works only correct inside environments gameone or
gametwo (else movecount=0, Whitetrue). It stores the positions
only in the notation language which was defined by babel system.
So if you want to use the stored positions in an other document, you have to use the same language (Styles: english, french,
germanb, dutch).\\
I use this macro for becoming a survey of all my running games.
Use \bs storeboard\{filename\} as last command just before say \bs end\{gameone or gametwo\}. Then you can prepare an other document, for example to typeset 12 running games on one A4-page.\\

If you don't agree with an element of the postcard you can change
it, just before you say \verb+\postcard[..]+ by the following
way.\\[2mm]
Change board 1\\
\verb+\board{.......} or \begin{position} ...... \end{position}+\\
\verb+\savegameone+\\[2mm]
Change contents of boxes for example \bs moveonebox\\
\verb+\global\setbox\moveonebox=\vbox{..........}+\\[2mm]
Change definitions\\
\verb+\gdef\sender{.....}+\\[2mm]
But you can only change the contents not the position of an
element ! \\[1cm]
