Blindfold chess

Here is an example of a configuration file for blindfold chess.

Create ~/.nocheto/configs/blind.ini file with the following content (and tweak some values if you want):


    [engine]
    engine = nocheto
    goseconds = 1
    level = 0
    autoplay = 1

    [board]
    boardtype=utf8
    autoboard = 0
    viewgraph = 0
    viewtree = 1
    viewboard = 1
    viewmoves = 0
    viewvariants = 0
    viewfen = 0
    viewopening = 0
    viewcoordinates = 1
    viewexplorer = 0

    [console]
    speach = 1

How to play blindfold

After the blind.ini file is created in the ~/.nocheto/configs/ directory, execute nocheto -c blind.ini command in the console.

To see the board again, enable it by the autoboard command.
You can also get at the start of the game by the uu command and replay the game by replay command. Replay command shows the board even if autoboard is disabled.
