Hi, nice project! It's been very useful to us working on the chess version. Please feel free to use any part of my code if it's helpful. I did implement...

Perhaps one thing to consider is that the history planes encode some information about the opponent, which isn't really part of "pure" chess but tends to be something humans use...

Sure, I'll give it a shot. I'm still new to this so could you tell me what the best practice is for taking multiple file names in a command line...
