PGN file?

Avatar of Poidokoff

It's basically just a text file containing PGN notation, usually with the suffix of .pgn so that PGN readers can distinguish them more easily.

Basically, a PGN is a file, where you can magically copy and paste into a viewer and it magically comes up with the game before you played :)

I was wanting to post a chess puzzle, and it said to put in my pgn file, so I couldn't do it.

It gives you three options on the set-up.  I think the first is "start with blank board."  If you don't have a .pgn or FEN of the position, that's the one you want.  Ignore the other two and click "continue" and it will give you the board to set up.


 But could the pieces be moved?
