Arasan
Arasan chess

by Jon Dart

Arasan is a chess program for Windows and Linux. It is copyrighted, but allows free distribution, with some restrictions.

The latest version is Arasan 8.4, released in February, 2005. The Windows version runs on Windows 95 or more recent versions. The Linux version comes in source only, and requires GCC 3.3 or higher to build.

Arasan has both a native Windows user interface and a console-based chess engine for use with Winboard or xboard. Arasan also works with Arena, another free chess interface.

Arasan includes an opening book with over 50,000 moves.
