Learning the CLI Options #3446
Comments

stockfish implements the UCI protocol http://wbec-ridderkerk.nl/html/UCIProtocol.html those are the commands that can be used with the engine. |

Got it. I think it would be helpful to explain that explicitly somewhere. "UCI" is mentioned repeatedly, but the significance of UCI is not. In any case, this solves things for me 👍 |

Just FYI, when something is mentioned repeatedly, it usually means it is important. Repetition was often used in the classical languages to signal importance. Greek, Hebrew, Latin etc. |

I'm trying to learn the usage of the CLI tool, and can't find any obvious resources to help me. If I try
./stockfish,./stockfish --help, or./stockfish help, I don't get anything. I don't see a man page. I don't see any links to any usage guides in the readme or on stockfishchess.org . Can anyone point to where I can learn the usage? And maybe it'd help others in the future to share this resource better?The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
