Parameters:
– defines the horizontal alignment (floating) of the entire board, should be
tright
ortleft
(or nothing)
– The text that appears above the diagram may be empty;, ,...
– defines corresponding boxes of the board, see below;– the text below the diagram may be empty; optional - may not be placed (even not in the other templates)
A box is defined by the name of the piece or the empty parameter. The names of the pieces are given in algebraic notation:
- k = king (king)
- q = queen (dama)
- r = rook (torre)
- b = bishop (alfil)
- n = knight (horn)
- P = pawn (peon)
There are also some magical pieces available:
- a = archbishop (arzobispo Δ horse + alfil)
- c = chancelor (cancellor 8.000 horse + tower)
- f = upside-down king (right backwards)
- g = upside-down queen (dome backwards)
- m = upside-down rook (turn backwards)
- e = upside-down bishop (backward ivory)
- s = upside-down knight (backside down)
- h = upside-down pawn (backsided pawn)
- z = champion - for chess Omega (field)
- w = wizard - for chess Omega (mago)
These letters are combined with "l" for Light=White (white), or "d" for Dark=Black (black). So "kl" is a White King, and "nd" is a Black Horse. First the letter corresponding to the piece is placed and second the letter of the color.
A black square is written using "_", spaces, or nothing. It is recommended to use two spaces.
You can also use "xx" for a cross,"xo" for a black circle or "oo" for a white one.
You can also add numbers to the box using "x1" for 1, "x2" for 2,..., "x9" for 9. There's no 0.
Examples
In the following examples the rows and columns are listed. Because any text between "UD=" and the next "VAID" is ignored, numbers and letters can be added without affecting the output.
