<p>One idea that occurs to me might be useful would be to have a way of setting a whole swathe of text to use a given piece image set. My conception of it would be that it would be between two markers similar in principle to the a href= and /a markers.</p> <p>The code in the piece set could then be inserted in braces and be intrepreted as inserting a line break followed by the image of the piece. Even better would be to set it out as a table with one column for the images and one for the text, with each perce on one row of the table. Either way the lines</p> <p>{M}The MARSHAL moves as a Rook or Knight.{.RJ}The CANVASSER moves as a Rook or Camel.{A}The CARDINAL moves as a Bishop or Knight.{.BJ}The CALIPH moves as a Bishop or Camel.</P> <P>within such markers specifying the Alfaerie-many set would present the description of each mixed-range Ecumenical Chess preceded by the image that I use for them.</P> <P>I have no idea how practicable these ideas are, but I would be interested to know, and I wish that I had thought to suggest it before embarking on my Spring clean! </p>
