This document serves as a guide for the Greenblatt Chess program, also known as MACHACK, designed to run under the DEC time-sharing monitor for the PDP-6/10. It provides a comprehensive list of commands for user interaction, including options for playing as white or black, playing against oneself, printing the game or board status, and configuring move examination parameters like depth and breadth for different modes (Hacker vs. Tournament). Additionally, it outlines the input notation for making moves, including how to handle captures, castling, and piece designations, and provides an example of how to initiate a game.
