[Retros] ELM Records

[roberto osorio]

Hi Otto,

ELM is "retro-twinning" asking for a twinning a) white to move, b) black to
move, a legal last move of the "same
nature" performed by the same pice type comparing a) with b) (equal in
every respect, for instance, SxB,
PxR=Q, e.p., etc)

Since the position has to be legal, it is not feasible to show a check or
mate (where the side performing the
last move is determined).

best wishes,
Roberto
