REBOL [ Title: "Display chess board" Date: 7-oct-2003 File: %display-chess-board.r Author: "Sunanda" Helpers: ["Gabriele Santilli" "Carl Read" "Anton Rolls"] Purpose: {Display a basic chess board and some moveable counters (use a mouse to drag and drop). The most-recently selected counter comes to the front, if it was obscured by other counters. Intended as a get-you-started set of ideas if you intend to write a board game, and a demo of VID feel and other useful techniques} Comment: { Derived from a basic example of mine and a question asked on the REBOL mailing list Sep-2002. Most of the ideas in the actual code come from the above named helpers. Definitely a stone soup script, this one.
