MPchess – Drawing chess boards and positions with METAPOST
This package allows you to draw chess boards and positions. The appearance of the drawings is modern and largely inspired by what is offered by the excellent web site Lichess.org. Relying on METAPOST probably allows more graphic flexibility than the excellent LaTeX packages.
This package is in beta version, do not hesitate to report bugs, as well as requests for improvement
