WoodIn 3.0

General Information

WoodIn is a PlugIn for usage with the Internet Chess Club's BlitzIn. With WoodIn, you can play games on the Internet Chess Club with the DGT elctronic chess board. If you have a DGT XL clock connected too, you can choose to show the moves of the opponent on its display. Optionally, WoodIn can speak your moves and/or the opponentes moves.
