Why are the rank and files reversed when you define a move with steponly

You're right, the rank & file offsets are backwards when you use the <1, 2> notation.  I will have to fix this.  The file offset should come first.  For now, so that I don't break your code, instead of using the <1, 2> abbreviation, you can construct the Direction normally: Direction( 1, 2 ).  This calls the constructor directly and it takes the file offset first.

Thank you for pointing this out!
