Chess Partner,
an early chess program for the IBM PC by Scott Murray commercially released in 1983, running under DOS 1.1 or later. It requires a color graphics adapter and 128KiB of memory. In his review, along with the SPOC program, Dave Whitehouse's recommendation was to wait for something better to come along ^[1].
