Although it is not in the same league as commercial programs, it plays a fairly strong game. Chenard is written totally in C and the source code is portable to just about any operating system.
The code has a built-in opening library, special endgame tactics, and the usual min-max search algorithm. One of the more interesting features of Chenard is that it automatically learns new openings and does not have to spend time thinking when it re-encounters any position in the first 15 moves of a game.

I love it. Chenard was and still is my first choice for just playing or testing my chess app.
This is simply the best ever
Still great after many years. This is a strong chess game, simple and basic utilities. No needless features. Chenard is a classic...
