; Chess Giants is engine-agnostic, which means it can handle any CECP-compliant
4 
; engine, and virtually any state-based engine that communicates using newline-
5 
; terminated ASCII strings over standard IO (stdin/stdout). All it needs is to
6 
; read this configuration file to learn how to talk to the engine, and how to
7 
; interpret the engine's replies.
