Quite new to the game here. I know the moves, the
names of the pieces. but the notation used in, for
example the DOS version of crafty, I don't understand.

Is there a guide to help ?



EXAMPLE
Crafty v22.1 (2 cpus)

White(1): move
book moves {e4, d4, Nf3, c4}
book 0.0s 47% e4 c5

White(1): e4
time used: 0.00
Black(1): move
book moves {c5, e5, e6, c6, d6}
book 0.0s 40% c5 Nf3

Black(1): c5
time used: 0.00
White(2):
