+ chess.el is an Emacs Lisp library and several clients on top of the
+ underlying library functionality for performing various activities related
+ to the game of chess.
+
+ You can play against an external chess program such as gnuchess, crafty,
+ phalanx or sjeng. All of them are publically available, and chess.el will
+ automatically detect which one you have installed, provided they have
+ standard executable program names, and are in a located in a directory which
+ is part of the PATH. See the customisable variable `chess-default-engine'.
+
+ You can also play against another human or computer over the internet
+ (through a direct Emacs-to-Emacs connection, or on one of the Internet Chess
+ Servers like freechess.org or chessclub.com), or even against a very simple
+ chess thinking module implemented in pure Emacs Lisp.
+
+ chess.el also provides a mode for editing Portable Game Notation (PGN) files.
