Chess Engines |
||
jose is packaged with the Toga and Spike chess engines. However, there is a huge number of freely available -and commercial- engines that you can also use with jose: |
||
WBEC Ridderkerk | Best site for "Winboard" chess engines. | |
UCI Engines.de | A very up-to-date size for "UCI" engines. | |
The "market" for Linux and Mac OS X engines is not quite as large, but growing steadily. Here are some interesting links for Linux and OS X users: | ||
Shredder
Fruit Hiarcs Ruffian Gothmog Deep Sjeng Yace |
