Template: Chess diagram

[mav]

I'd like to employ the Template: Chess diagram (see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucena_position for an example from the
Wikipedia) into my own tiddlywiki's. I tried a couple of things, but I
can't seem to get it to work. Is there a simple step-by-step procedure
for doing this (designed for a noobie like myself).

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I assume you are referring to this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Chess_diagram

Wikipedia uses the MediaWiki engine, which is a lot different from
TiddlyWiki. However, there are plugins providing a certain level of
compatibility:

Hi Mike,

What have you tried?

I would probably build that from scratch and it seems to me that a
MUCH different markup were by far better. More like...

<<chess kl=b8 kd=d8 pl=b7 rd=a2 rl=c1>>

...which would render a chessboard and the figures positioned
appropriately. The coding seems straight forward. Ever tried any of
that?

Cheers, Tobias.

I also just stumbled across this, not sure how relevant it is though:

Where what? ;-)
If you mean where the plugin is, see the attachment (I hope you can see it, never posted attachments to GGroups...) I've put on my last answer...

Cheers,
