eleeye_engine - a chess program engine to communicate with its user interface
SYNOPSIS
eleeye_engine is a command-line client for UCCI (based on UCI) protocol. It
provides full support of basic UCI command, such as position, go, banmoves or
bestmove and much more.
DESCRIPTION
The Universal Chess Interface (UCI) is an open communication protocol that enables a chess program engine to communicate with its user
interface.
It was designed and released by Rudolf Huber and Stefan Meyer-Kahlen, the author of Shredder, in November 2000, and can be seen as a rival
to the older XBoard/WinBoard Communication protocol. Like the latter, it is free to use without license fees.
Customarily, UCI assigns some tasks to the user interface that have traditionally been handled by the engine itself. Most notably, the
opening book is usually expected to be handled by the interface, by simply selecting moves to play until it is out of book, and only then
starting up the engine for calculation in the resulting position. (UCI does not specify any on-disk format for the opening book; different
UIs -- user interfaces -- usually have their own, proprietary formats.) Also, the user interface may handle endgame tablebases if the
engine does not support it itself, although this is often better handled in the engine, as having tablebase information can be useful to
consider a possible future position.

toga2 - toga2 is a UCI-only chess engine.
SYNOPSIS
toga2
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the toga2 program.
toga2 is an UCI-only chess engine.
toga2 and other UCI engines can be used with XBoard or WinBoard (or other xboard-compatible interfaces) with the help of PolyGlot
(UCI-to-xboard adapter). An other well known frontend is KDE knights, which has a UCI capable interface.
OPTIONS
These program does NOT follow the usual GNU command line syntax, but can be fed with options with a personal config file which can be read
by the polyglot helper software. The author himself says "You are advised to skip this section unless you are completely crazy about com-
puter chess." For a complete description of these UCI commands, see the readme files.
