It's good for manual entry by human, though rows
are not very visible. For processing in code,
such may be considered:
P=: ' PNBRQKpnbrqk'
cmax=: [^:(>&(a.&i.))"0
charboard=: 1j1 #"1 (' .'{~2|+/~i.8) cmax~ ]
$BEGIN=: (,|[EMAIL PROTECTED]) ' ',~' ',~'rnbqkbnr',:'p'
8 8
charboard BEGIN NB. character display
r n b q k b n r
p p p p p p p p
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
P P P P P P P P
R N B Q K B N R
There is also a new J Wiki page for bitmap layout
