This package can be used to typeset chess games using PGN and show diagrams of the current board in the document. The package builds on work by Piet Tutelaers - the main novelty is the use of PGN for input instead of the more cumbersome coordinate notation (g1f3 becomes the more readable Nf3 in PGN).

A Postscript Type 1 implementation of skak's fonts is available as package skaknew
