Today Knights has reached the stage where some exciting new features are completed and usable. The new release includes saving and loading PGN files, setting the difficulty, and supporting the UCI engine communication protocol. I also added a move history widget, which can display the moves so far in three different notations.

A handful of new themes appeared on kde-look which can be downloaded from the Knights configuration dialog.
St. George theme by Dave Kaye, with visible history and clock widgets.
Move history can be save quickly from the history widget, or from the dialog which appears after a game is over.
Knights can be downloaded from their usual site at kde-apps:
