  1. ; Chess engine configuration file for Chess Giants.
  2.  
  3. ; 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.
