Subject: About the free software Chesstree
|
Hi,
I read recently in discussions about a free software Chesstree, a kind
of java software. It seems very interesting. However, several friends
and I cannot open it. Does anyone know details about this? About the
Java issues and how to open it?
All the author requirements are met. These are mentioned in the readme
file as follows:
------------------
To run ChessTree:
java -cp ./ChessTree.jar net.sourceforge.chesstree.ChessTree
For (lots!) more information, download the source tar ball available
from the
ChessTree sourceforge page.
http://chesstree.sourceforge.net
Requirements
Since the program is written in Java, the only requirement is a Java
processor. It's available for free at Sun's home page
<http://java.sun.com/downloads/ >. Be sure to get the Java 2 Platform,
Standard Edition (J2SE), at least version 1.4.1.
--------------------
Thanks for any help,
Antonio

Hi,
I was specific and I mentioned the site
http://perso.wanadoo.fr/mdv/echecs/opening/frbenp4.html
No confusion one is "Chess Tree" and the other is "Chesstree" and is
Java and its page says:
================================
Welcome to ChessTree!
What is ChessTree?
I like chess. I like playing it, and I like studying it. I have lots of
chess books which let me follow along the games of the masters,
complete with move commentary. To fully understand why the player made
a certain move, the authors provide many different potential alternate
moves, complete with moves and commentary, sometimes more than 10
levels deep. When you're following along on a chess board, it's hard to
keep track of all these subgames.
That's where ChessTree comes in. It's specifically designed to help the
user study games and/or do their own exploring. It's very good at
tracking the various paths of a game, and letting the user branch off
to study a different move, or go back and continue along the main line.
It keeps track of all the different branches and lets users go to any
branch or move at any time. It's NOT meant to be used to play a game,
though two players can use it to do just that. It contains no
artificial intelligence, except for knowing the rules of the game.
If you'd like to help, I could use some help with internationalization,
so if you speak a foreign language (natively!), drop me a line...
The User Manual for ChessTree can be found here.
If you want to keep up to date with ChessTree releases, click on the
Mailing Lists link to the right.
Requirements
Since the program is written in Java, the only requirement is a Java
processor. It's available for free at Sun's home page. Be sure to get
the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE), at least version 1.4.1.
==================================
So, what you reply now?
Greetings
