Description: cmdchess
        ========
        A Windows command line application to play chess (specifically) using the command prompt.
        
        Overview
        --------
        Note: This project is still a work in progress and errors are expected to be fixed in a few days.
        
        This project aims to serve as the go-to command line chess application for Windows users. As more and more windows users are becoming power users, a light-weight CLI chess application provides great convenience to access chess puzzles - which hopefully enables chess enthusiasts to practice more often and improve their tacticical abilities.
        
        Since most command-line chess applications are catered to Unicode consoles (and somewhat alienating Windows users), the project has been developed to cater to ASCII consoles - and therefore can be run in what Windows users are familiar with: ``cmd.exe``
        
        Upcoming core featues
        
        * Short-algebraic notation to input moves
        * Popular chess variants (e.g. chess960, horde)
        * Puzzles from databases
        * Popular games history
        
        Errors
        
        * Blocked moves exceptions left uncatched
