-If you want to replace the standard skak fonts with the new ones then
-you have uskak.fd to replace the original one.

-To use the diagram font with the skak package you have to redefine
-the first line of the definition \setup@showboard in skak.sty (and
-this is essential for compiling SkakNew.tex). Maybe in future
-versions of skak there will be a better interface for selecting
-chess fonts ... don't blame me for this.

-All further questions concerning the skak package should go to Torben
-Hoffmann. Another useful chess tool for LaTeX is pgn2ltx by Dirk
-B\"achle which will automatically convert PGN files to LaTeX/skak.

-You will find technical details on my web site
-http://www.art-satz.de/portfolio/schriften.html
-although it's in german. If you want extensions to the fonts you can
-write to me at info@art-satz.de, and I'll think about it ;-)

+Changes:

+========

+January 2008

+------------

+Added AlphaDia.*

+New versions of Skak-Diagram*.* (technical clean-up)

+

+May 2006

+--------

+This is version 1.3 of SkakNew-Diagram and SkakNew-DiagramT. I have

+added some character 'masks' for use with the new version of chessfss

+and chessboard by Ulrike Fischer. Their main task is for separately

+colouring borders, fields, character outlines, and character inlines.

+For more information see the documentation of the resp. styles. PDFs

+showing the font layout are supplied.
