Nemeton

a WinBoard conform open source chess engine by Stan Arts. It had its over the board tournament debut at the PT 47, November 2014, in [|Leiden], and was introduced and released soon after. Written in Pascal, Nemeton started as simple "bean counter", utilizing a 16x12.5 mailbox board array (board:array[0..200] of byte) without piecelists and therefor an extremely small memory footprint. Nemeton **1** did not [|poll] [|input] while thinking, so that pondering or analyzing were not possible, but already in Nemeton **1.1**, released in February 2015. || toc =Etymology= A [|nemeton] was a [|sacred place] of [|Celtic religion] with trees. In Dutch, it also sounds like somebody who grabs material (Nemen Ton!).
