ChessWorks 1.925 description

ChessWorks is a peer to peer chess game where you play friends over a
LAN or the Internet. 

It's simple - White selects "Connect", "Host" (ChessWorks then displays 
White's IP address). Black then selects "Connect", types White's IP address 
in the "Host" box, clicks Connect, and you're ready to play. 

An earlier version was rated "four mice" by Mac Download. The only omissions 
mentioned in that review - the ability to announce checkmate and a game 
tracker, have been added. 

Those wanting a "chess book diagram" style set should be very happy with 
the antialiased ChessAlpha piece set and "Pinstripe" board introduced in 
1.925. ChessWorks also has chat, sound, save/restart game, 8 piece sets 
and eighteen boards.  Utilities for making your own sets and boards, and 
for hosting your own ChessWorks server, are available at the new ChessWorks 
web page:
