Thank you for the package,

======================================================================

The following information was provided by the package's contributor.

Name of contribution: TeXmate
Author's name: Federico Garcia
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/texmate
Summary description: Comprehensive Chess Annotation in LaTeX
License type: lppl

Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
TeXmate formats chess games from very simple ascii input. The clean 
"1. e4 e5; 2. Nf3 Nc6; 3. Bb5 a6" will produce the same results as the 
sloppier "1  e4 e5; Nf3 Nc6 3.. Bb5 a6". The resulting format is fully 
customizable.

There are 4 levels of commentary: 1 is the main game, 2-3 are commentaries. 
Each has its fonts, punctuation marks, etc., and these are also 
customizable.

The package includes a tool for the creation of diagrams.
