+Here, "b" stands for "black" and "w" stands for "white", so
+that, for instance, "bL" means "black lance".  The numbers above the
+files and the letters to the right of the ranks represent the most
+common notation system used for shogi by westerners (the Japanese also
+use Arabic numerals for the files but use Japanese numerals for the
+ranks).
