 I was just trying to squeeze Peter Jennings code for the KIM-1 into a single
 1K worth of EPROM that would self load. There was enough space if I didn't
 include the opening moves. I wanted to use the empty space in my KIM-1 debug board EPROM.
Some of the test use so little space. I finally split it into
 two blocks. So once one gets their KIM-1 working again, they can play MicroChess.
 I've not tried to play it yet. I have to pull out my chess board.
 So, some interest in Chess playing. I have my KIM-1 working on my prototype
 6532 to 6530 adapter.

If you're into tiny chess programs, ?scar Toledo G. (@nanochess) has
written a few, including a 1K JavaScript chess, and a 481 byte x86 version.

 I'll run thru some moves with any new chess program I find.  I'm so rusty
 and try such oddball moves in messing with them that I lose too much of the
 time.
 I first had a copy of Sargon for the Apple 2 eons ago, and it was
 impressive for the time.  Also useful for doing study of positions and the
 like too.
 I really like Adventure and got totally geeked out meeting Don Woods @ VCF
 West (thanks guys who put on VCF West again)
 Thanks
