<title>Chess engines</title>
-
+ <p><app>GNOME Chess</app> supports any Chess Engine Communication Protocol
+ or Universal Chess Interface compatible chess engines. You can edit the
+ <file>gnome-chess/data/engines.conf</file> for the desired engine.</p>
+ <steps>
+ <item><p>To edit the file for just yourself, copy it from
+ <file>$(datadir)/gnome-chess/engines.conf</file> to
+ <file>$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gnome-chess/engines.conf</file>. These will usually
+ be <file>/etc/gnome-chess/engines.conf</file> and
+ <file>~/.config/gnome-chess/engines.conf</file>, but some distros are
+ different.</p></item>
+ <item><p>To edit for all users using root privledges, you can edit
+ <file>$(datadir)/gnome-chess/engines.conf</file> directly.</p></item>
+ <item><p>You can use the delay-before-move option to select how long
+ <app>Chess</app> should wait before reporting the human's move to the engine.
+ The default value of delay is 2 seconds.</p></item>
+ <item><p><app>Chess</app> can pass options to a UCI engine each time the engine
+ is told to move. To know which options it supports, you can check the
+ engine's documentation.</p></item>
+ <item><p>The other options get passed to the chess engine when the game
+ starts.</p></item>
+ <item><p>You can also pass different options to the engine binary depending
+ on difficulty level, see the GNU Chess and Phalanx configurations to know
+ more.</p></item>
