Game Courier now has a composition mode for creating fairy chess problems. It lets you create a new position without any knowledge of FEN code by updating the FEN code for you when you move pieces around the board with either moves or commands. It also lets you enter a solution, which remains hidden in a form until the person trying to do the problem chooses to view it. Details are provided at the end of this page. Here are some possible uses for this: (1) Publicize your games by creating problems for them. (2) Illustrate how new pieces move by creating problems that use them. This may be useful for enhancing Piececlopedia pages. (3) Increase your skill at a game by creating problems for it, and publish them with solutions to show off.
