Hi,
Winboard does this sort of thing. I have very limited experience with it,
though, and can only tell you to get that program and read the help. It is very
good. It may also be possible to do what you talk about on LiChess or the Free
Internet Chess Server, but again, I’d need to look into that. You probably have
the time to dig into it.
Speaking only for myself, I don’t have the attention span to do much more than
pick up a few tips here and there and I don’t want to work at chess. I just
want to play and hopefully win here and there. Chess is more of an escape for
me than anything else.

Hi all,
As I delve deeper into learning, I constantly hear players talking about having
a computer program analyze a move.
I have done this on liChess, but I only know how to do so after a game is over.
Is there an accessible way for us to have moves analyzed as we study openings
and potential lines?
For instance, if on move 6, I would like the computer to tell me that is an ok
move, but this other move might be the better way to go, etc.
I know one can use Shredder to give you a plus or minus evaluation, then you
can take a move back and try another and so forth, but this seems tedious, and
doesn’t give much analysis, such as when Stockfish says this move was a
mistake, better was Knight to C3 or whatever.
I’ve used liChess’ opening explorer, which is very cool to look at opening
lines, but from what I can gather, you can only see how many players played a
particular move, and once you select that move, I know of no way to go back and
try another line.
I know a lot of players use Fritz, but I’ve not heard of any blind players
using it.
Any advice on a good accessible evaluation software much appreciated.
Ché
