Parameters:

<alignment> - defines horizontal alignment of the whole image, must be "tright" or "tleft";
<header> - the text which appears above the diagram, may be empty;
<a8>, <b8>, ... <h1> - define corresponding squares of the chessboard, see below;
<footer> - the text which appears beneath the diagram, may be empty.

A square is defined by the name of piece or empty parameter. The names of the pieces are those given in algebraic notation:

There are also some fairy chess pieces available:

These letters are combined with either "l" for Light=White, or "d" for Dark=Black. So "kl" is White's king, and "nd" is Black's knight.

An empty square is written either using underscores, spaces, or nothing at all. Two spaces are recommended.

You can also use "xx" for a cross, "xo" for a black circle on an empty square or "oo" for a white one.

Numbers can also be added to squares by using "x1" for 1, "x2" for 2, ..., "x9" for 9. There is no 0.
