Version 015 adds graphics via WinBoard

Version 014 adds better endgame play

Version 013 adds an opening tree, revised menus, and a redo move function

Version 012 adds more efficient timed move search time, quits searching when forced mate is found or only one possible move, and a pawn promotion bug fix

Version 011 adds an undo move function, a help function, custom board setup, and a more readable game output

Version 010 fixes some bugs in Version 009

Version 009 has an improved Computer AI finishing game, long and standard algebraic notation, and PGN file output capabilities which allow the user to save a game's moves to a file in a universal format. The files may be read by other computer programs or may be printed out using a standard text viewer.

Chad's Chess allows the user to edit the Computer AI, so if you think you've made a better data file, send it to me and I'll add recognition in the About Chad's Chess section
