**ChessLin**,
likely the smallest computer implementation of a none [[FIDE]] compliant chess variant written by [[Olivier Poudade]] in [[x86]] [[Assembly]] as sizecoding exercise, consisting of only 256 bytes <ref>[[http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=67226|Chesslin by Red Sector Inc :: pouët.net]]</ref>. [[Pawn Push#DoublePush|Double pawn push]] and therefor [[En passant|en passant]], [[Promotions|promotions]] and [[Castling|castling]] are not implemented. It plays like a fish as AI is reduced to a half-ply, it also has no [[Endgame|endgame]] detection - and takes about a hundred seconds to play. ChessLin also only works on [[Microsoft]] [[Windows]] [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_XP#Service_Pack_3|XP SP3]]. Like minimalist [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edlin|Edlin]] line editor, it focuses on a single console line to [[Entering Moves|enter moves]] <ref>[[http://www.phrack.org/issues/69/4.html#article|2 - Chesslin Baudsurfer - Article with source code]]</ref>.
