Note: This English
help guide for WinChloe has been developed by our webmaster
Reb
Orrell. He has been assisted in this endeavor by Christian
Poisson (the developer of WinChloe),
Vaclav
Kotesovec (Czech Republic), and Michael Diosi
(Germany).
One interesting aspect of WinChloe is that various
problemists are working together to record chess problems into a
master database, distributed on the WinChloe website. As of 9
January 2006 there were 209,272 problems available for download in WinChloe format.
Monthly updates are available for downloading.
For a list of Works In Progress and Complete Works
go here. WinChloe also has the ability to recognize
various
chess problem themes. The currently cost for WinChloe
is 200 eur. A FAQ sheet containing helpful information is
located here.
Václav Kotesovec has written a manual for Czech and
Slovak users :
Nekteré tipy a zkušenosti s programem WinChloe.
A listing of various terms, stipulations, and aim

Glossary.
