+style
+
+Usage: style n
+
+ Sets your 'style' variable to n. Equivalent to "set style n". This command
+allows you to choose among the various board display options.
+
+ 1. Standard ICS board in ascii format (default)
+ 2. USA-Today Sports Center-style board
+ 3. Experimental vt-100 ANSI board for dark backgrounds
+ 4. Experimental vt-100 ANSI board for light backgrounds
+ 5. Style suggested by ajpierce@med.unc.edu
+ 6. Email Board suggested by Thomas Fought (tlf@rsch.oclc.org)
+ 7. Miniature board
+ 8. ICS interface maker board -- raw data dump
+ 9. last 2 moves only (previous non-verbose mode)
+10. Alternate raw dump
+11. Same as 8, but with verbose moves ("P/e3-e4", instead of "e4")
+12. Similar to style 10.
+13. Displays board in color for SGI machines -- white versus purple pieces
+ with purple and black squares (for b/w monitors it would display as bold
+ and regular).
+
+ Some graphics interfaces work only with specific board styles. Determine
+which one is best for your set up.
+
+ Suggestions on different styles are always welcome.
