CTAN package update: chessboard v1.5

The package below has been updated at tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thanks, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College .................................................................. The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: chessboard v1.5 Author's name: Ulrike Fischer Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/chessboard/ Summary description: This package offers commands to print chessboards. It can print partial boards, hide pieces and fields, color the boards and put various marks on the board. It has a lot of options to place pieces on the board. Using exotic pieces (e.g., for fairy chess) is possible. The documentation includes an example of an animated chessboard, for those whose PDF viewer can display animations.

The most important changes are some internal adaptions to the new package xskak (which I will upload soon). Apart from this, I corrected some bugs and added key getpiecelists.
