My free blindfold chess program for DOS is ideal for this type of training. It will also work under all Windows versions. If you own PocketDOS it will run on your palmtop device. It works finely on my Casio BE-300. You input moves at the command prompt by typing, e.g., 'g1f3'. Whenever you want you can display an ascii diagram of the board position. It also includes Chess256 functionality. Chess256 implies that the pawns in the initial position are randomized on the second and third rank. /Mats http://hem.passagen.se/melki9/blindc.htm Edit Form You may not post a new comment, because ItemID BlindChess does not match any item.
